Hi Gene. Does a SCAT crankshaft of standard bearing size qualify as a stock crank? Thanks Brian

Brian:
we spoke earlier today , for everyones information ,what i mean by standard configuration is : not having to bore the bearing saddles and special caps to fit an oversize diameter crankshaft ... Model A or Chev. etc. ... the SCAT model T crankshaft is a standard configuration crankshaft and i will add that i have installed 11 and all have been excellent ... a job very well done ...my compliments to the manufacturer... always an optimist ...Gene French
