[Fot] TR Racing cranks

[Greg Solow]

A good used crank properly race prepared, deep case nitrided and ground with the proper radii on the journals, is very reliable at power outputs of up to 165 hp as long as the revs are kept below 6800 rpm. The weak link in bottom end is the connecting rod. For use over 6,000 rpm they need to be replaced with steel billet rods.

  FOT:
  Thank to the many of you who gave me good advice on pistions after I discovered that I had burned holes in two of them in my TR-4A at the Wine Country Classic. 
  Now as we are rebuilding it was discovered that the crank is cracked and must also be replaced.  I am told the options are a used one reground or a new off the shelf billet crank.  Thougths and advice.
  Hope everyone at the Glen had a good time.
