I have an 88mm T4 centre main, chev journals, wedgemated crank from Jose at DPR. It measured out perfectly. Not run as yet. I have had a 74m DMS crank, nothing wrong with that either.

depends if you like the ( driving u mad ) sound of straight cuts

have you driven a car on a daily basis with them fitted it can B anoying

55slug · 10 Feb 2009, 6:33 pm

I dont disagree, open IDAs, straight cuts,no sound deadning, holley fuel pump, but not a daily driver. the ones in the photo are magnums, I have run cb's but they made virtually no noise once warm.

full circle cranks tend to be a bit heavier,the lighter you roataing assembly is the more power/less loss u will have you should see the latest F1 cranks almost no counter weights!,

vw54 · 21 May 2009, 2:10 pm

yrs thats true but with VW the counter weights help balance out the vibrations and ossicilaations

coletrickle · 21 May 2009, 5:16 pm

yes thats right but you only need what you need,if you can get away with a small counter weight vs a big/full circle counter weight crank and there is no strength issue i'll take the small counter weight every day.I've got a couple of old rimco welded cw cranks that work perfectley to 9000rpm i plan on lightining 1 when craig brown is back in action.

once you go full circle then its no longer a counter weight is it.

bajachris88 · 21 May 2009, 5:39 pm

the circles are machined to have the counterweight incorporated in it... (unregular width in circles)

Bizarre · 21 May 2009, 7:54 pm

So why did every one bag out Bernie Bergman when he did full circle a few years ago??
