im not going to sit here and type out the whole story as it would take to long. Basically i went there to buy good parts with good money and i walked away with a nightmare, unless they are big names and proven parts i wouldnt buy from them. If anyone is deadset on buying there stroker kits then go for it and find out but see if you can get it elsewhere as SSS are a pack of ass wipes that care only about the dollars changing hands and not the customer service. Oh and another thing, how can somebody sell something that they claim is proven when they dont really even know what they are selling???????????? the mind boggles

www.chasa.com.au (http://www.chasa.com.au) These guys advertised C.O.M.E 355 cranks for $990 a while ago. If they will still do that deal I don't see the point in buying a SSS crank.

Go with harrop or c.o.m.e racing you can never go wrong best off doing it right the first time I got a harrop in mine cost me $1100 better spending that little bit more in the end havent heard anything bad from them before its always places like SSS, pro-stroke ect ect... but up to you in the end if you want to do it cheap

how much are crankshaft rebuilders 355 cranks going for these days?

im about to buy one, its a billet 355 crank and i thinks its around $2400 balanced to the specs my engine builder requests... Not cheap but they say there one of the best, than comes harrop than the come racing cranks..... I just cracked my last come crank so yeah.... Still tosing up waether im going to buy the billet crank shaft rebuilders crank or the harrop crank...

Still tosing up waether im going to buy the billet crank shaft rebuilders crank or the harrop crank... wow.. how did it crack, what was in the combo ??? i paid $1420 for my crank rebuilders crank, sold it for MORE... the problem is it took about 3 months to make, dunno if i went at a bad time or thats just the way they are....it didnt bother me really, least u know they produce the stuff there for you rather than less care taken on mass produced items

When I was looking at one they quoted me the same as Sinister and said there would only be a 2 week wait.

scored my crankshaft rebuilder crank for $1100 inc postage, only because it had been made for a previous customer who had never paid/picked it up. Cheap & didn't have to wait, bonus !

so no one has/ or knows anyone whos used one of these sss RPM cranks????

there was a dude on SC ages ago saying how he brought one and it is a good engine, suppose the only way to find out is risk the cash and try it. post 19 http://forum.streetcommodores.com.au...plies+strokers (http://forum.streetcommodores.com.au/showthread.php?t=8446844&highlight=sydney+speed+supplies+strokers) omly time i have heard anything good about them

im doing a v8 conversion atm on my calais, and i heard sydney speed supplies is sh#*. If i were you id go to harrop engineering mate, and yes you get what you pay for in the end.

Im bout to go down this path and $600 odd dollars for a 355 crank just sounds a bit too good.. appreciate any input thanks guys hey guys, I dont know if you've heard but Sydney Speed Supplies have got a new 355 crank that is an exact copy of a Harrop for only 500 bucks! now I was sceptical about it but thought I should go down and have a look at one and when I saw it next to a Harrop I was pretty shocked so I bought it let me tell ya, with a F288 crane cam it's putting out about 460hp on the dyno! with their vn alloy heads they told me they did their homework on this thing and now I believe them...

imitators not innovators...

I'd pay the extra grand just for piece of mind. If it's too good to be true, it usually is. That's what i've learnt anyway.

Sorry guys but the revolution has begun and if you keep a closed mind to it all, you'll be left behind... my dyno spec sheets don't lie.........get over it............ Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

i'm not saying its wrong, but that's not the question here. its not that the car made 460hp, its how long it will last, and keep making that power, that would be my main question and concern. it doesnt matter if it looks exactly the same, you could make one out of clay to look identical if you wanted to. i'd be more worried about the grain structure and integrity of the materials used

It's not about how much power it's making. I think it's about how long your gonna be making all that power.

With the availability of 355 Eagle and Scat cranks, there is really no need to get Sydney Speed cranks. These cranks are made by the two largest crank manufacturers in the world and the finish of them are fantastic. The Scat cranks we got in the other day are knife edged, oil galleries are radiused, they are a really good bit of gear. And all this for $500-$600. We sold out of our Holden journal scat cranks in one day. Scat chev journal cranks will be available in a few weeks, Eagle chev journal and Scat Holden journal cranks will be available again in December.

as far as im concerned the crank would have to be the most vital part of an engines workings............and if the crank goes **SNAP**, then itll be alot more than just a replacement crank......so i would be happy to spend the extra dollars on a race proven crank. especially with the rest of the engine in mind

I hate to burst your bubble rocket boy, but you're not telling the good people where those crappy eagle and scat cranks are made!!!!!!!!! Forget rocket and cowin and the way they are ripping off the public at large, not to mention everyone in the trade and holding the Australian public to ransom and bull****ting to all of you guys about Sydney Speed Supplies cause Im here to tell you that the SSS crank is made in the same factory as scat and eagle and is made of a better grade of steel than the harrop and if you read Street Machine you will find out all about it.The only reason rocket bags them is because they know the new SSS crank will put a big dent in their sales when Street Machine delivers...........
