there less than £300 & a full set of shells aound £100,tho i risked it & did the ebay route & got a low millage as good as new crank for around £100 & it's been ok so far ...

but you can't just take the crank out i'm arrraid it's a complete engine strip down ...so you will have other costs such as head gasket,other gaskets & seals & cam belts...
