The price does seem higher than what we are used to seeing but a lot of these Eagle/CAT cranks that came out needed additional machining before you could even use them in an engine. The crank keyway was too big and in the wrong location and the converter or flywheel wouldn't fit on the back of the crank unless machined properly. Maybe these more expensive cranks are already fixed, or heck, maybe they are a whole different brand of crank together.

Cranks can vary in price from $300 to $3000. If interested you need to call them up and get the details. Then you can make educated posts about the price.

sounds like NJTORQUE was asking for more details, and it doesn't seem like an unreasonable or uneducated question to me

If the additional machining to the flange, and keyway issues are resolved, it's worth the extra money. It was stated that they are the CAT cranks on the other board, it would just be nice to know what you get for the extra money they're asking for.

Based on my experience with TA they don't like explaining anything. That crank could be $10 and I wouldn't buy it.
