I am looking for a good 2.0L stock crank (71mm).
It is for my race engine, so I would rather have forged than billet (like the SCAT product). Who has used a AA forged crank? Any issues? Do we know if these are brand new or reconditioned to be "new"? Anything to worry about or better options? https://aapistons.com/products/counterweigh...qxoCrTYQAvD_BwE |

A 66mm crank can be made into a 71mm crank by offset grinding the rod journals.

A 66mm crank can be made into a 71mm crank by offset grinding the rod journals. I was wondering if I could have a 1.8L crank ground down to a 2.0L crank. If the people doing the work can add a little weld to the outside of the journals you should be able to. I have TWO 1.8L cranks (paperweights) on my shelf. |
