BTW. Eagle, Scat, CAT, RPM, Probe, and who ever else has moderatly priced H beams, all get them from the same oversea's suppliers.... while it's said that eagles and scats are usually on the higher end as far as keeping tolerance, They all let crap slip out the door from time to time... I have seen brand new Eagle and Scat cranks need to be remachined to correct out of tolerance issuses. My buddy had 2 of his 8 brand new Scat rods Out of round. He had them all remachined and weight matched....
Doesn't matter really matter what brand you buy, just have your machine shop double check everything...
Not sure how hard you plan on running the motor but you may wantg to consider upgradeing the rod bolts to the ARP2000 bolts usually around a $90 upgrade...

Wow, it's really nice to see a very well thought out build that develops quickly. I forgot you were the guy with the Harley theme going on. You have some seriously nice "children" lol!
Our shop cleaned up recently for some shots I helped take for their new website. I know how dirty a machine shop can get, especially when face milling rusty parts!
