Just thought I'd post a few pics of the crank for my new engine after it came back from being balanced. I'm finally getting somewhere - the block is prepped and the pistons, rods and crank are ready to go back in. Next thing is to decide what head and cam I'm going for.

the design shows a distinct lack of imagination, talk about starting off with a clean sheet of paper, then not bothering to fucking draw on it,lol On 20th Apr, 2012 Paul S said:
I'm mainly concerned about swirl in the runners caused by the tangential entry. |

Looks great. Heavy crank is good when you're dealing with a screamer. Especially when the weight is in the correct place, like yours. I'm jelous! On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:
Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem. |

Do you know who made it? Don't know much about the crank - all I know is that it came out of an engine built by Bryan Slark. |
