If this is true then it begs a couple questions...
1. Why do the SS racers run them?
2. Why did they require weight added on both ends of the crank to get them to balance with the same rods and pistons as a forged crank?
Maybe it's only 1/2 pound and the less weight is worth it like a thousand other tiny seemingly insignificant things the SS racers do.
seems odd but maybe it's the 1/2lb thing or counterweight location. i should've looked closer. i've got a 440 that i took about 3/4lb per cylinder of weight off vs stock by using light parts and it didn't seem that much weight was removed from the crank.
