Title: Nice new roller crank Post by: RobtheManx on March 16, 2009, 22:45:14 pm Hello all , I'm one of the fifty percent Russel Ritchie says don't post , been a member for ages but not got round to posting .
Thought I"d post some pics (because Monkiboy told me to ) of my 82 mm SPG rebuilt , polished , pinned, welded , balanced and wedgemated , by Gary Holznecht of Lil Snort fame . Engine is gonna be a 2180cc , Dean Lowry heads , DDS cam , empi sump , DDS oil pump , DDS manifolds , IDAs and 9.5 pound flywheel . Hardly anything new in the whole engine !!! Let me know your thoughts , Rob Title: Re: Nice new roller crank Post by: Diederick/DVK on March 16, 2009, 22:55:34 pm hi rob, gorgeous crank and rods!!
is it gonna be a race engine? the parts sound awesome, can't wait to see it done :) way oldschool!! ;D cheers, Title: Re: Nice new roller crank Post by: Lee.C on March 16, 2009, 22:56:08 pm well you'll need "new" gaskets :D :D :D
Looks AWSOME dude - mine should be back from balancing today - I CAN'T WAIT!!!! P.s should be in "pure Racing" really ;) Title: Re: Nice new roller crank Post by: . on March 17, 2009, 01:54:57 am That crank has the narrow rods that were made to work with the Empi 88mm Slipper Skirt pistons.
If you plan on using anything else, you'll have to make spacers for each side of the little end to take up the space.

Its gonna be a race engine , Mr Holznecht is putting it together for me . I just can't wait to hear it . Some people know what car it's going in , don't think I'm brave enough to put it in the buggy . Monkiboy will never beat me , he bolts too much stuff to his car , ha ha Title: Re: Nice new roller crank Post by: RobtheManx on March 17, 2009, 22:06:19 pm Another pic
