    How F'd is my crank

    I already know the answer but is this crank savable or not? I was going to start putting pistons back in when I noticed this. This build is turning into a big headache.

    Q: "How F'd is my crank ?"

    A: "Proper F'd"
    (A reference to a recurring line in the hilarious Guy Ritchie movie "Snatch" lol).

    For those that know, I don't. Expense aside could it be saved? Spray welded then reground? Or some other method, or would the heat of welding ruin the hardening?

    Even if spray welded. Would that still be a week point for the harmonics of the flywheel to give it someplace to break at?
