Default Re: lightened flywheel

BEAVERTAIL crank

has gear ...

has woodruff key

29.2 lbs

weighed on a $200 shipping scale.

Too cold to measure main and rod size.

Fifty years ago an old time racing guy told me that this was a good crank for a racing engine!

He said with a big smile: :

"The Beavertail crank cuts through the oil vapor easier and has less air resistance!!

I took that to mean that he was joking!
