I have my original '70 1600 crankshaft sitting in my garage. The machine
shop I used sent it out to be ground while I was deciding to make my engine
a stroker -- which I did. So I spent $250 (I think it was) for this grind
job and then bought a new crankshaft. I would like to get my money back if
someone is interested.

Hello Roadster Fans,
So when we last left the re-building of my poor little '70 1600, I was
trying
to find out about headers vs manifolds {THANX MUCHLY BTW: I am now getting a
header :-) }
However:
We were also replacing the rod and main bearings...so...off the crankshaft
goes to be checked and ground. A thud and a magnaflux later, I am looking
to
replace the crankshaft. Any words of wisdom. Your thoughts would be greatly
appreciated.
Kevin
