Crankshaft?

[nboldman]

Hey guys, looking to buy a new crank. Wanting your opinions. Im looking at a few options

1. +3mm stroker stufffer crank

2. Have Ken rebuild the bad crank in it, while the top end is out being bored over

3. buy an oem

4. buy a used one and risk detonation(never happening lol)

My top two are there.

I guess what im really looking for is your opinions on the stroker.

If you go the +3 route, are you going to be porting or using the spacer plate?

 

[nboldman]

I plan to port eventually, but not right away. and i was going to see what everyone would do.

Depends on budget a bit. Don't know difference between rebuilt vs new stroker $$$ wise.
Still have to get brgs and seals no matter which way you go.

I recently did a 3mil with spacer and it seemed to be a little peakier than before. But it had been down for a long time so I may have forgotten how it actually ran, haha.

Hardest part (not really hard) is you have to put crank in one case half, install piston/cyl and check clearance between rod and case at front and rear. Paul at Vito's told me .020 min, so I went .040.

There's no replacement for displacement.

there is no better crank than the stocker you already have, have it rebuilt, and you already know where

Yes sir!! As money comes in, I'll be sending it over there. Looking at about $500-800 from ken!
