The Scat Billet cranks are top notch. They also make a lower price crank that is just a forged piece, not a bad crank and usually thought of as better than an Eagle.

What's a 2 bolt crank? Did you mean 2 bolt block? I agree a 2 bolt block is as good as a 4 bolt, until its broke. Try RACE Engineering in Florida (561-533-5500) They sell very nice engine parts.

Not to steal the thread but that is 7.00 at 200+ Mike, unreal. It is probably time you went to a glide. You may be fighting an uphill battle with the 400 for traction. Do you have a 2.20 first gear set in it or a stock ratio 2.48.
