I think there isn't enough meat left because the hole is too big for the bearing size used. If you make a smaller hole on a new crank, it will go slower, so the trick is to either use a bigger bearing size, bore out the crankcase, make a sleeve for the crank, or make a new crank for a bigger bearing and bore the case..........
