From what I've been told OEM is the best way to go. I'm in the process of a re-build, and I'm going with an OEM Honda crank.

check the tolerances of the rods big end to make sure that its within the service limits. if not, then you can always have it rebuilt using a pro x. the hot rods are a crap shoot

yessir! the OEM crank is rebuilt using the pro x rod and should be done by a builder that "KNOWS" what he's doing.
