SBD 2.0L XE 16v Ultra lightweight 8cw EN40B steel crankshaft with narrow big end journals.
Stoke: 86.00mm.
Weight approx: 13.2kg.
We have released this new crank design for the 2025 season, for customers and engine builders who require an ultra lightweight Steel crank, while using the 8cw (or fully counterweighted) design. It uses standard width main bearings and narrow journal big ends. The narrow journals on the big ends are perfectly suitable to the rods available for our slipper piston and rod combination. This has narrow bigend journals and is designed for use with rods that have a 23.8mm wide big end. Please see the link below to ROD-VX-2.0XE-149-02S.
You can modify one of our standard width ROD-VX-2.0L-143S con-rods for use with this crankshaft, if required.
The crankshaft is also designed without an internal trigger wheel, this was done for several reasons; it allows the weight of the crankshaft to be significantly reduced, it also means that the internal trigger wheel, which is prone to fatigue issues when used at sustained rpm is removed.
Recommended bearings:
Main bearings: BRG-M1.00-A
Big end bearings: BRG2.00-R
