Dependability and reliability ....cracked blocks are not good

Fortunately in the combo we are running it's never seeing over 6500 RPM we've had a stock crank 50oz motor together for going on 10 years now and have never had any issues outside of now having 1000+ passes on it we finally wore the bearing out.. Don't really need to spend to money/effort on neutral balance if there isn't any performance gain, but wanted to consider the option of if verse the cost buying the Eagle crank and going neutral. if we were having reliability issues I could justify the expense for it, but at this point the investment is simple for potential HP gains for a car that will never make the top half of the sheet on the current budget.
Additional info; were making 300-350 HP tops... not a speed demon by any means haha
