Well long story short.... Need a new crank.

What was in it was a Bryant billet.

Seems to me after balancing the price difference is not a huge amount.

Should i go with a Bryant again or a Forge Callies?

With Callies is the metal soft after you grind them .010+? Since it only has a case harden? Where the billet is good for .020+?? This is just incase you mess up a main or rod bearing.

This crank is a 5 inch stroke. That goes in the my B1-TS engine. No nitrous N/A around 1200hp.


And i weighed my the piston, rod, bearing, rings ect and it weighed 1777 grams.

Is this good for a 7.100 alum rod (MGP) and 4.562 piston? (BME)


thanks
Doug

either crank will get the job done.
can you post the individual weights of the components to get that bob weight? sounds pretty light.

I think the bob weights consist of half the rod weight(I'm not sure which end?), rod bearings, piston with pin and rings and some oil. I'm not a machinest or a qualified engine balancer tech, but that is what I remember from various discusions on bob wieght, hopefully one of the more knowledgabe techs will chime in and correct me as needed or verify what the correct desription of the bob weight is
