318 Connecting Rods and Crankshaft

Odd..... with that piston weight and pin weight (152 grams from your numbers above), I come up with 2121 grams bobweight with the stock heavy 318/360 rods. Something is 'not computing'....The numbers I am using for that computation:
  • Piston 547 grams
  • Pin 152 grams (based on your total of 699 grams)
  • Rings 52 grams
  • Rod bearing 44 grams
  • Pin lock 0 grams
  • Rod small end 240 grams
  • Rod big end 518 grams
  • Oil on journal 4 grams
I'd love to see some pix of the Eagle crank clearly showing the counterweights. Yes, part of the target bobweight is in the counterweight shape, but the angles of the counterweights on the crank figures into it too. I'll work on getting some pix of the SCAT cast crank to post for comparison.

BTW, that 1760 gram maximum bobweight for the SCAT cast crank for internal balance has been posted by someone here who has balanced up some of those cranks and found the number on their own. I indirectly confirmed this with a call to SCAT; they stated that they need to add a small amount of weight to these cranks with their approx 1800 gr bobweight sets to achieve internal balance.

Tnx; just trying to learn what is what.

Cool, Ill try and get some crank pics and big and little end weights of my rods for your calculations. My big/little rod fixture was still a little wonky but I bet we can get it to +- 5g. If I can get to within 20-30g of the 2050g bobweight, Id be set to put this thing back together. No locks, these are press fit.
