My crankshaft took a dump...

That little nub that connects the crank to the piston broke right off the crank. If I am gonna replace it, what else should I replace while the engine is apart....
also, is it worth the money to get a modified crank?

Check the con rod for any signs of damage, you might want to replace it any way, I dont think the nub could just break off and not cause other damage.

Not sure about the modded crank, I would just send the engine to EB Mods, or TNT mods, and get a whole engine modifed.
