    Simply hearing him share his life story is truly delightful, and all I can express is my heartfelt gratitude. It was truly remarkable.

    Really appreciated the explanation of how Scat manages the metallurgy during machining compared to the alternative. Great stuff!

    You have an amazing shop and the technology at Scat is simply awesome.

    I have found that SCAT products don't require a lot of extra machining and balancing before assembly of an engine....love the products. Keep it going, please!

    Great story!
    It's always nice to see home grown manufacturing.

    I bought four of his rods for my latest Honda rebuild when I heard about the company's story last year. I always thought they were low quality before.
    Four, of 1500 made that day 😅

    We’ve got a forged Scat crank and Scat Pro series rods in our Chevy 406, never had a single issue with anything. The machine shop complimented about the detail and fit for there parts. USA made by hard working men and women, thank you🇺🇸

    Seems like I heard that someone one from Ford came to Scat to built either the crank or rods for the 427 for won LaMans . I remember hearing how they tested the engine on a stand to simulate the track .

    HMM, Currently working on a AMC 401, a stroker set would be a great upgrade here.

    I've built some VW engines for both cars and Experimental aircraft using Scat cranks, non better for the price for sure. There was a F1 racing plane named ScatCat I believe. I would like to know if they make and or do anything with pressed cranks, such as the old Kaw Z engines and Two Strokes.

    their cast cranks are cast in china. eagle and most others also. But they machine them. iv had 2 sets out of 12 that i had to hone to get a extra .001" clearance. because their crank was perfect on factory size. they do nascar stuff too.

    80% of the steel gets thrown away? they should look into turning part of the shop into a foundry

    A fine American story. And to think that proper state functions were funded by a reasonable 2 1/2% sales tax back in the day! The people there are absolutely being robbed blind today - I would never dream of any light industry endeavor there today.

    • @bigmuz_pilot
      @bigmuz_pilot 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Yeah that was back when the 1% was taxed properly, that made up the difference.

      @Alex-mr4is 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Maye the steel comes from there. Chinese tend to have good prices on material

    Caution!!! If you purchase a crankshaft from SCAT, they will machine it with incorrect dimensions, so that the engine can not be assembled. Then the customer ends up with a $1,500 paperweight that they waited 6 months for.
