counter weights shaved down so you don't have to clearance the block.

Had my counter weights shaved 0.250" for a 400 block. It all internally balanced with KB hypereutectics and 440 rods. The crank is forged.

I wrote up all of this information years ago. Do a websearch for "451 Mopar" or look at my website at
www.arengineering.com and you'll find the info on building a 451.

forgot you stated that on the manifesto
"diameter of 7.250"... so, no matter how much needs to remove, needs to cut to that diameter.
whats the actual average diameter on stock 440 cranks ?
