Check the Cragar carefully for cracks, they have a history of that but many are very good.

Any chance you could post the name of the builder (I am looking for one)? If he doesn't want his name posted (it would be good advertising for him) could you ask what kind of problems he had? I have one still in the box with serial number about 80. If I remember correctly the first 50 didn't have the oil passages drilled, are there other thing to watch out for?
