    There are a few guys wanting 185" cranks for OHV conversions, though it is a very small market.

      For what it is worth, scrap MAY hit 150$/ton later this year. If demand in CHina and ore prices hold. Sheet iron near steel mills in midwest running 125$ right now. Beats $60 from last year this time... Not saying scrap or not, just giving you details to help with the decision. Hard to get a sense on parts market now. Members aging, several passings are putting lot of nice things in circualtion, fewer people capable of doing own work and cost to pay others going up. Sorry to sound so negative, just being real.
