OK, guys. Here's my question. Is the extra cost for Nitrated Cranks and stuff worth it? What advantages are there for using them in a street engine, if any.

When a crank is Nitrated it is a hardening of the surface (rod and main journals) This is a good idea on a motor your spending a lot of cash on. You dont want to hurt a journal on a big stroke crank $$$$ Also good on all small motors as well.
All out DPR forged welded cranks are Nitrated.
