ive been looking for a crank to buy for my LQ9 build. found this one on tech, just wanted some expert opinions on if it looked good or not. I dont know what to look for in a crank besides the 24 reluctor wheel teeth. thanks fellas

looks fine to me, i dont see any scarring on the mains and even if it had a little you could still have it turned to correct it

Ya looks fine to me. If you run your fingernail across any of the surfaces, do you feel anything or is it smooth?

Looks to be high mileage but okay. No spun bearings or loss of lubrication. I'd say at minimum would require a polish, possibly turned.

Make sure the snout where the balancer rides is not scored up, too.
