327 forged crank #4672

I pickeup up a circle track used and abused .060 327. I cashed in a rod at the big end. It has a factory steel crank casting #4672. My question is would it be worth fixing the crank were the rod beat on it. The crank is not wasted but it is damaged where the rod side loads at the chamfer of the crank. the journals already .020 on the rods and mains.

Thanks Dennis

Dennis,
All small journal 327 cranks are forged. At .020 on the rods and mains already This crank is already at its limits. Look around for a standard size crank, they are still out there.
Good luck, Kyle-hot34coupe
