Just for our information, which wrong balancer did it have?

FWIW, the last billet crankshaft quote I got was $3250. For that money one can specify BBC rod journal size, any stroke length, any front snout length and diameter. So not an apples-to-apples comparison with an OEM forging.

Another FWIW, I'd value a ready-to-run OEM cast crank, rod and main bearings at $450-500. Thus, he's asking an $800 premium opening bid for the forged crank.

I haven't seen any for sale in years, but the last two I sold went for $600 each. Inflation makes paupers of us all eventually.
