Model A Crankshaft
so its way to expensive to buy a new one with counter balance weights.
and a 32 crank is rare...and has a bad habit to break in half. is there any place where i can send my stock model a crank in, and have them machine on counter weights and balance it? if so where? |

Re: Model A Crankshaft
Never heard of a B crank breaking any more often than an A. The blocks are supposed to be a bit more fragile but I think the cranks are fine. There are new cranks available.

Re: Model A Crankshaft
We used the Burlington crank in the Model A Times sedan project and liked it so much that this year we went and got another to put in the roadster.

Re: Model A Crankshaft
They have not put one together. Right now the goal is to have many of the parts if not the complete engine by the Turlock Swap Meet which is the last weekend of January.
