Strongest Cranks??

Im looking for the strongest crank to go with my 350 with 16 psi and 8.5-8.7:1 comp.
I know I need a forged steel crank but does anyone recommend any brands?? also suggestions on the con. rods and pistons would help.

Eagle also sells good stuff at a decent price. Im betting not as good as a cola, lunati or callies crank but your not breaking the bank either.

Good luck.

people have been using eagle name brand in 1000hp + applications without breakage, if so it had been their fault. many in the nmra run it without problems. i am using a eagle rotating assembly when i get around to it.
