Bad news from the machine shop.
My current 225 odd-fire 225 Buick crank is already .010"/.010" undersize.
Crank shops are now extremely finicky and will charge a core charge if it is sent out.
Max they now allow is .010" under, so I have to start with a Std./Std. crank.
225's were common in CJ5's and Commando's.
Lots of them swapped to V8's, so hoping a crank might turn up from someone here.
Engine has already had a fair amount of work done including new pistons so do not want to give up now.

Let me know what you have and a price.
This is for my Dio Tipo Triumph/Buick build, trying to keep it "Period Correct".
