Default BBC crank casting question..

I 've been looking for a used forged crank for a 454. I 've found out that casting numbers 3521, 7116, and 7416 are common forged steel cranks that chevrolet used. My question: Is casting #7416 the same as #3967416?

Yes. All the numbers you listed are the last 4 digits on the number.
I do not see 7116 as a 454 Forging. 7114 and 7115 are 3.75 stroke.

3520, 3521 and 7416 are 454 Forged cranks.
Hope this helps.
Terry

Thanks Terry!

I've been looking on google like crazy and couldn't find an answer and I just wanted to be sure that I'm getting a forged crank.

I dont suppose you would be interested in a set of the dimpled hi-perf 7/16" big block rods with forged ls-6 (?) pistons. Was the only big block stuff we didnt sell at long beach last week.

Alas we sold the matching forged crank

You've got my attention... Are the pistons from a 70 or 71? Also, How much are you asking?
