I recently acquired a 401 crank that threw a rod and got a little beat up with the plans of making it into a stroker crank. However, the mains are .030 under as it sits and is quite rusty, would need a decent polish to get it right. 

Has anyone had a crank welded and turned back to standard recently? If so, who did you use and about how much was it? Any and all recommendations welcome. Preferably in the DFW area but shipping is not a hassle for me. 

Thanks in advance.

King does, or did, offer 0.040 undersize main bearings.
