[02WhiteZX3]

I am really looking into doing some serious work to my Focus as soon as my warrenty is gone. In my looking on the web, the only aftermarket crank I've been able to find was like 2,500 bucks!!! What can our stock crank take as far as hp? When I do all my block work I want to do everything right and I don't want to have problems with the crank down the road. Any help would be great!!

 

[yet another ZX3]

Cranks are rpm limited, not really power limited. Turbo Toms car has a stock crank with serious power. Unless your looking for 8500rpm+ or more than 400hp (Tom?) don't worry about the crank.

If you really need a new crank, look to the UK for a replacement. Looking at $1400 shipped, from any one of several rally prep shops.Some of our new UK members may be able to point you in the right direction.
