I have been looking at rotating assemblies myself for my 454. The best price I have found is at ADPerformance.com. I think I might just go with Scat because they are cheaper without sacrificing quality. I bought there cast crank for my 350 from them and was very pleased with the quality.

I have a Eagle cast crank and rods in my 355, and there very nice, no problems at all.

It doesnt matter who you choose, youlll get what ya need either way.

Re: which rotating assembly

I would pay the extra $ for the eagle stuff if you are going to do it. They may not be as cheap as scat but are easier to balance and dont use off shore casting's. Just my opinion.
