I definitely would do this crank. It would be even better if a deck plate could be machined to allow you to run some modified H22 rods with it as well. Or try and get some custom 27mm pistons.

Please DO NOT Post In The General Section
From this point on until otherwise briefed, posting in the general section of Performance Tech is prohibited. The only thing to remain here will be the stickies. We would just delete this section, but that would cause unintended results.
The majority of the threads created can appropriately be placed in one of the Performance Tech sub-forums or Technical; and the posting of them here is detrimental to the activity of said forums. If you have any questions about where you need to place your thread PM me or one of the other mods.
For the most part you all have caught on without this post, but there have been a few habitual offenders that forced me to say this.
Everyone will get a couple of warnings from here on out, after that I just start deleting threads.
Again if you have any questions, PM me or one of the other mods.

Originally posted by Joey GT-R View PostI thought I'd just throw it out there, but the K24A2 crank at 99mm can be machined to fit H22s and F22s. They rev to 8K stock so paired with the right rods and pistons you might can have the longest stroke of all and still rev fairly high. Or if you're just after the most torque possible, any of the other K24s would do. If I was to go back to an F22A build, I would consider this.
Revving past 25 m/s is just wanting to shorten the engines life.

Always run the longest rod possible, that is as long as it doesn't compromise the integrity of the piston or clearancing the cyln walls. Contacting the piston manufacturer and asking them about wristpin location mods will let you know what you can do.
Offsetting the wristpin by 1 or 2 mm(closer to the intake valves I believe) can gain power, as it allows for a slightly longer push on the crankshaft

Knife-edging crankshafts is an expensive process that's not proven to have worthwhile gains. What you may gain in acceleration without a load, you are likely giving up in longevity. Far too many people think that the crankshaft is submurged in oil or something.
Also, the F23A is a decent crankshaft but the smaller rod journals mean that there are better options.My Members' Ride Thread - It's a marathon build, not a sprint. But keep me honest on the update frequency!

I wouldnt put too much thought into rs ratio unless you are wrapping it out all day everyday. I ran a 1.4x for a couple years revving to 8500 damn near everyday for 35000 miles til it finally spun a rod bearing due to my bearing clearances being too tight.
You can play the math game all you want but in the end it doesnt have all that much effect. You arent building a f1 motor

A heavier crank makes smoother power curves, and probably reduces wear on the journals significantly over a lightened one.
Id get it balanced that's it.
