Personally I used a Callies Pro Magnum crank and Lunati Pro Mod rods in both my 540 and 565 builds. Wiseco pistons in the 565 and Mahle in the 540.

The cost of the crankshaft is offset from tolerances, counterweight design, you can buy a cheaper crank, that requires tungsten for balancing or just minor drilling. Sometimes the same forging is used for different stokes and the counterweights are high and require turning on the lath or excessive drilling.
Hope this helps.
