No, not the colombian type, rather head and crank.
I would like to get a crank and head crack tested and wondering how much it is?

Crank will have to be machined anyway, so if they do a deal on testing and machining thats cool.

I think Spiro charges $50 or so to crack test a crank.
I can do a dyecheck test here, that's OK on heads and cranks.

Spiro crack tested and ground my crank for $120.

Dunno about heads though. Just ask Graham.

with head crack testing i think it depends on what you get done as there are a few ways of doing so.
x-ray
with a magnet and metal filings
pressure testing when heating up a head


So price depends on process
