By Gary Gregory on Tuesday, January 01, 2013 - 08:53 pm:What is the diameter of the crankshaft-crank pin..co-rod area ? Going to have the crank checked but can't find any measurements in the Ford Service book. I don't think the crank has ever been out and turned ?
By Walt Berdan, Bellevue, WA on Tuesday, January 01, 2013 - 09:05 pm:1.248 on both the rods and mains.
By Jack Putnam, Bluffton, Ohio on Tuesday, January 01, 2013 - 09:57 pm:If you have the crankshaft reground be sure that you machine shop will maintain the radius in the corners of the journals. If they do not your crankshaft will be a piece of junk. (as it will break for sure and you will be the newest member of the two piece crankshaft club)

By Gary Gregory on Wednesday, January 02, 2013 - 05:41 am:Thanks for the info...don't think i want to join that club !
By Walt Berdan, Bellevue, WA on Wednesday, January 02, 2013 - 01:38 pm:David,
No badges, you just get the opportunity to hang the pieces on the wall in your shop. Just a reminder of what fun this is. 
I got a pair of those cranks from my speedster.
Walt
