how do they compare to the price of gold?
I think gold is cheaper!

A greek race car builder well know to rally professional custom
requirements for their private and commercial projects was
getting crankshafts, camshafts and other parts in titanium.
5-8 years ago was making 2000hp from the 4g63 engine and
1700hp from Ford Cosworth equipped with complete titanium internals
so to see this for the A series is amazing!

Nice! As soon as someone casts aluminum A-series blocks with a ferrous outer coating to dupe the scrutineers, I'll consider these. Then again, if I win the SuperLotto tonight, I'd buy several sets to use as swizzle sticks for my guests & I to stir our cocktails while sitting on the deck of my Ferretti CL112 yacht, watching the F1 race from the Monaco harbor. DD: Gold closed at US$1,190.60/oz., so the carbon pushrods are a steal!
