Re: [T3] 74/78 crank?

If you stay 88mm or less your longevity will be fine and strok as you can
afford.  The stock AT is good for about 150HP reliably.

as for the rev's  I just turned 91K on my Stocker, Stock NEW cast crank with
no CW and its in great shape.  It see's almost all highway mileage at 70-75.
