Oh boy! Sounds like some real gud engeneeering. Professionally the answer would be a resounding NO!. If just the AC adds enough load to break what you have rigged then it is NOT EVER going to last.
For a lot of reasons including crank balance and the REASON the crank was damaged in the first place.
At any rate to get you a good reply you should post a picture or two of what you're up against then I and others in the forum might be able to suggest a course of action.
