If you read leo Santucci's book on the Chevy 6 and you investigate cranks he alludes to the fact that the early 64-65 crank could be a real power adder becasue it has less mass than the later 250-292 cranks and their counterweights.
Do I understand that right? I mean if eliminating weight is the key to making thes eengines rev faster why are more people doing this? Is there a problem sourcing these cranks (i have one) or simply a chore to get them to balance out smooth and not produce vibration.
Come on engine builders are these cranks a Top Secret speed device?
