Back when, we brought our dowel pin count to 8. But that was a type 1. This is like someone added dowel pins to a type 4 crank.

We have a very lightened "racing" flywheel with 5 dowels like this one. So, yes, some type iv flywheels and crankshafts did get this treatment.
But, no crankshaft to go with it. Thought it might be good for a project at the time, but it's had way too much material removed for any practical use. At least it's not likely going into anything we have planned. |

European Motor Works (and others) will perform this on your crank for $65. https://www.europeanmotorworks.com/vw/crank...ft-service.html |
