thanks for all the replys, I took my crank to a good rebuilder today and he said the journals look like they haven't been turned before.but to clean it up and check for cracks would cost about $125 or more.so I think I will advertise locally. if someone wants it here,maybe they pay shipping and if it checks out they  can just pay me then. maybe trusting someone I don't know is a little old school but anyone who is a yblock fan should be a trustworthy person I would think! if someone out there wants what looks like a good 312 crank,call me and we can talk price. wayne 406 253 0233.

Montana Ford Man.  John and Rono have both made excellent recommendations.  As an eBay watcher, I've seen several 312 cranks sell for $300 in the last two years.  Keep in mind that the seller had to pay eBay a percentage of the selling price, a percentage of the shipping price (crazy, huh!) and a fee to PayPal for the financial transaction.  Summary - on eBay the seller does not get all of the money you paid for the item.

I've never sold anything on eBay, so I can't tell you how much the overhead expense to the seller is.

Hope this helps!

If I were looking for a 312 crank, I would want the measurements as Rono mentioned, also before I had it shipped to me, I would want it magnafluxed, which I would pay for.

Probably need to measure the main and rod journal size. I wouldn't go more than .030" on either, but let's hear from some others.
