theres no such thing as a turbo crank mate. The crank in the turbo motor is the same as the one in the non turbo motor. Id suggest you just buy a rebuilt turbo motor or have one rebuilt

acl race pistons dont exist anymore... srt or something is just as good apparently, i've got it written at home, but since acl got bought out, they stopped making pistons of their own
