Forged crank question?

[D-UNIT]

I seen forged rods and pistons but has anyone seen or heard of a forged crank. I want one.

[D-UNIT]

If I already have one please let me know. How much h.p. can it handle before it rips apart.

According to JWT it's one of the beefiest cranks you can get...stock. I know of several people pushing in the neighborhood on stock cranks with no problems at all, it's factory forged

[D-UNIT]

ALRIGHT....!!! That's great news. Now I have one less thing to worry about. Thx nate.

Man I'm a tool...I left out in the neighborhood of 500hp on my last post...but yeah, it's mmmm beefy

god bless nissan. forged stuff from day one. well, day one of the L series motors, which is what the KA decended from. I would not worry about your crankshaft busting, they are nuts tough.

You'll turn your drivetrain to soup before you ever brake your crankshaft.

but what about the balancing of the crankshaft

[Nathan]

You should always balance the whole rotating assembly after replacing pistons/rods since there IS a weight difference
