Default are you serious..... major problem

alright quick summary about my 07 tc. i just did a mild rebuilt, forged pistons, rods, valve job, balance delete, custom turbo kit (all name brand parts and done right) good tune with emanage blue. so a week after my build and on the road my water pump goes bad, no biggy, so i replaced that. then two weeks after that (present day) my car makes a loud pop noise and just shuts down. a couple of my buddies pulled the motor, again, and without disassembling the motor, we found out that my crankshaft snapped.... great... we are going to take the motor apart for further investigation, but i cant seem to find JUST the crankshaft anywhere without buying the stroker kit. can someone help me out i bought the pistons and rods from dezod, maybe they can part out a stroker kit for me?

I am about to pull my internals and I could sell you my spare crankshaft. I think Crush has a spare also.

Our stock crank takes a lot of power. Wasn't Rado running the stock crank for awhile? I might be wrong, but I thought someone said he was.

hmmm..... that's curious. i can't really offer any suggestions until you tear it down to find out exactly where the crank broke. but good luck (i'll keep an eye out for a spare crank, I have a 2AR crank but its a bit larger)
