Buy once...cry once. Stay away from the cobbled up stuff in my opinion.

Any manufacturer to stay away from?

Bret's screen name in most places is "PFC1" and his truck is "Pulling For Christ".

Dan Homa owns ShaZam. I'm pretty sure he's not pulling anymore, I see him selling parts on Facebook from time to time.

The D9TE-6303-XX steel 429 truck forging is an internal balance crankshaft from the factory.

Depending on overall parts combo, hp, and application, it’s possible to build an 8500 rpm 850 hp engine with a 3.7ish stroked 4U cast 429 passenger car crank. Of course the steel crank has superior virtues in such an engine....

I have one with F3TE- 6303 BA and it was definitely not internationally balanced.
