Crankshaft question

[roughneck427]

Hey guys scored a Tonawanda engine complete it has the heavy weight crankshaft 10105865 without the hole in the first pin in it anyone ever use one of these and any good?Or should i look around for a light weight crank? Im building non BS motor splayed caps good rods and pistons and a rearmount turbo setup for my 97 s10 like to be in the 400 RWHP range.I know im limited on my injection setup so ill be converting to a edelbrock 2114 manifold and using Tunercat OBD 2 software for tuning.

The 10105865 will work.

Re: Crankshaft question

yeah, as long as the bearing clearances are good you should be fine.
Be sure to balance everything though!

Re: Crankshaft question

Yeah talked to my machinist yesterday about the build actually has a customer with a syclone intake manifold setup that im inquiring to purchase and exhaust manifolds.Also has a lightweight version crank core.Saw another guy on s10forum use the sy/ty cast manifolds with no clearance issues.Rather go with a front mount inseat of rear mount.Any guys here have any cast manifolds willing to sell if this other deal doesnt come through i kinda know what they are worth so i wont lowball like ive seen other people searched ebay with no luck.

You might want to do an ad in WTB section of the forum. They pop up from time to time...
