Scat quoted me a price of $1499 for a 78 mm, one piece chromoly billet, T-4 crankshaft and I can buy one from Aircooled.Net for $500 but are there any other places that I can check for prices?

Thanks.

The stress on the connecting rod due to the change in acceleration is usually not as big a concern as the side loading on the cylinder walls due to excessive angularity associated with a short rod and large cylinder bore.

Damn that is a hell of an equation. I actually have a computer program at home that can figure all of that out for me. If you run it and vary things like the connecting rod length, piston weight, stroke, etc you can see the trends.

Each line is a separate equation (the second one is a simplification of the first) and D stands for "the derivative of". What's the name of the program you are using? I'll probably buy "Engine Analyzer" next week to play with.
