AustinTSI Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 I am going to have a crank and my cams for my 4g64 swap nitrided. There is enough room for about 10 cranks so I thought I would see if other people might be interested. It will run around $50-$100 for either a crank or a set of cams plus shipping but I haven't nailed it down yet and it will have to be done in batches. Meaning I have to have enough items to create a batch to process. The stock crank is already nitrided but if you have had it turned then this would be a good thing to do. Nitriding cams helps them to last longer and makes them have a lower coefficient of friction. I'm going to run it like this. I will post solid prices. Once I have commitments to the equivalent of 8 cranks (2 cams per crank) I will ask everyone to ship me their items. Once I have them all; or 1-2 weeks, I will have them treated. Once they are done, I will send you a bill to have your item shipped back to you. I'm not looking to make money here, I just happen to have a very good source for nitriding and want to offer it to other people. David.

quikconq Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 Hey David When you say "the stock crank is nitrided" you mean the g54, right?Or is the stock g64 also nitrided? I'm also doing the g64 swap,,just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinTSI Posted February 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 (edited) Only the turbo cranks are nitrided. The 4g64 and the 4g63 normally aspirated cranks were not nitrided. Also, if your 4g54 was turned more than a certain amount then you would want to get it re-nitrided. I don't remember the amount but I believe someone on here did some testing before.

Dad Posted February 7, 2015 Report Share Posted February 7, 2015 It was here....http://www.starquestclub.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=34130&st=0 I tried getting some caravan cranks done, it was a failure, they could not get good penetration, some came back bent. Hope you have better results. I will say I have tested cranks cut to .020 and still had the Nitriding intact. Dad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
