OMG is that a good price or what?!
Wednesday, June 13, 2007 9:10 PM
I never post this kind of stuff, but I gotta say, at these prices how can this company possibly make money?

This post has an eagle crank and rods for 500$

If anyone is in the market for this kind of set up this is just a heads up. I already bought all my stuff.

But serriousely.... how can this guy possibly be making money on this?

He can't be making money. There's something fishy there. The crank alone is over 2.5x that much.

Yup, CNC is legit. Had some buddies buy stuff from him. He's got great deals.

He may have great deals but for $500 you ARE NOT getting a set of rods AND a crankshaft. I don't care how good his deals are, that's financial suicide.

wow i might pick that up...maybe itss cause eagle getting out of the eco game?

There is no way Eagle is getting out of the Ecotec game. They are probably the #1 supplier of rods for the Ecotec right now.

Even if you aren't getting a crank, you would only be getting screwed out of $150 seeing as the rods cost around $350...If I had an ECO, I would jump on this right away, just to see at the odd chance that it may be legit...Plus, I too bought my Eagle Rods from them...great service.

He most likely has it in inventory and just wants to move it out

Lol...shoot and I wanted to come on and brag somewhere about this deal I just picked up...

I know OBX is not all that great of a header but that's a good $45 less than they usually go for on eBay, so I jumped on it. Cheaper than the Tsudo even.

And before someone says it, I realize you're talking about parts for the Eco and that I bought a header for a 2.4, that's what I have. Still, wanted to brag about the deal I got and this was the first thing I saw

What do you expect...You mod a motor that was never intended for racing. I'm surprised Eagle was nice enough to make us rods.
