that sounds crazy, weird, scary and expensive.
Is it true though? I bought one of those cheap ebay ones fyi. thanks for the reply though. p.s. Oh, $24.95 was too good to pass up. Haven't seen one of those on there since. Machine quality was tip top, and had laser etched logo (OBX). Some work went into that part, but i am sure it wasn't heat treated. Rockwell is low as per tester at work said, like 47ish. Don't remember actually, could be offf on the spec, as it was a while ago. Well whatever. I guess it's like a flywhel that is great until it blows and cuts your toes off. (met a guy who had that happen in his shoe box w/ a 283 sbc hittin 9.8K rpm) Anderjesky has passed, but i am glad I got to meet him. So I may loose a hood, rad. and plastic timing covers? (I love your car btw)

Hmmm......Seems if the aluminum is too soft, the crank key will simply eat through it, causing it to slip like crazey. I wouldnt worry about it..If it explodes, then you'll just have to get a pwr radiator, fiberglass hood, and new timing belt covers

I had one here the other day and when the stock crank pulley separated the heavy outer ring slid back on the hub until it ground into the timing belt cover, ate the AC and alt/ps belt and skipped timing on BOTH cams three teeth!
