Scat makes many cranks to included forged, non forged, different alloys and lightened etc etc.

The more money, the better the crank.

If you mean what is the best small block ford SCAT crank then I would say the lightened 4340 cranks.

Enlighten us on the 331 Turbo50 some would think that a 347 would ripp harder; going back to the saying more cubes/inches = more power. I thought the 347 issues with burning oil got fixed with all the newer ring profiles. Idk I'm just saying id like to know this too [burnout] [burnout]

331's rip harder and rev higher because of the shorter stroke crank...

+1 Shorter stroke allows to rev faster/higher, combined with the added cubes makes for a great street motor. It's the Ford version of the Chevy 327 which was a great performance motor.

This...! Every one claims they are the best. I have a Sonny Bryant billet crank. Good to 1800hp+ Cost me 1825 shipped. I believe It is one of the best cranks out right now. But There are a few top end companies all seem to be right there with their products.
