Title: 82 mm Crank brand??
Post by: RMS Boxer Service on September 28, 2008, 18:06:53 pm
Hello fellow Loungers  :)
I got a old but never used 82 mm stroker crank dirt cheap with stock rods (cleared and balanced)
and the seller did'nt know anything about it. First I thought it was a cast crank, but it sure ping/ring
like a good old german stock crank. All jurnals are 0,010" under and  the crank have the numbers
010 stamped at a rod journal and at a main journal. The oil holes at the rod journals are not camfered
like on other cranks I have seen, but the main journals are. The oil plugs in the crank looks like lead.
I have attached a few pictures of the crank.  Does anybody got a clue what brand this crank is and
would it be ok for a 120-140hp 2110 cc street engine for a Oval bug??

/Rolf

Maybe an old Claudes Cracker? I had an 82 CB cast in the Green M&M back in the 80's early 90's.

Haha, claudes cracker, I like it!

I'm going to put mine to 6500rpm nitrous abuse in the back of my Notchback. I wonder how many seconds of run time i'll get out of it? :D

single oilway case, knock off stock rods, 92mm pistons...it's going to be a STF beast i'll tell you!
