Keep trying. He is an extremely busy individual. You wouldn't believe how often his phone rings or beeps for text messages, literally non stop every time I have been there

There are several reputable shops that can get you a crankshaft. If one dont answer or return calls, go to the next shop.

Well I don't actually need a fancy one technically. I was just kinda curious cause I think I'll be better off buying an unbalanced crank for my new build. I don't think Mallory is cheap and I may need some.

I've broken an internally balanced crank also, but it was a stocker, and if Wade uses aluminum rods they are machining the rod journals to a smaller diameter for hemi rod journals, so I could see that increasing the possibility of a rod journal breaking, but I think the weight savings is much easier on the crankshaft.

I've tried calling Wagler probably 20+ times and NEVER received a call back either, I'm curious what the bobweight is on his 1.25" deckplate, 1.25" longer rod and piston assembly is, obviously he's achieving a much better rod angle with his setup, which I also like...
