Default Crank is done
Well the Crank is finally done for the GS so the motor will now be shipped to HKE so with any luck 2 weeks on the motor and then assembly and tune should put me back in my vette in the next 3 weeks. Driving the Chevy Cruze making corvette noises stopped being fun weeks ago but this car will be worth the wait. I miss my car sigh....

stock crank was fine, the car is at Dallas Performance getting some minor changes done. The crank was the last part needed before the bottom end could be built by HKE.
