what's the target bobweight of this crank set-up for? i see it has mallory in it so it must have a bobweight number. thanks Todd.

Ryan,
I had it set up for 1660g, expecting I will fine tune it when I have the final component weights. My plan is to use lighter weight rods and pistons. The last 4.125 Bryant did was 1714g, which is likely pretty standard for a 415 with Olivers and full skirt JE's, by my calculations. That crank used 14 large pcs of mallory, mine has used 13 and 2 small pcs. Going from memory, as I don't have the notes in front of me.

Toddo.k. thanks Todd. i was hoping it was about 150 gms. lighter. looks like a lot of counter weight so it shouldn't be a problem getting it down if i was motivated to do so. i would also like pendulem undercut counter weights along with contoured leading & trailing edges. i don't know:icon_scra , i'll give it some thought. either way thanks for your time Todd.

Ryan,
how in the world would you get to 1510g bobweight? I'd like to learn what components would do that. Lightest I could see a way to was about 1600g, with 530g steel rods and 425g pistons. Even that's cutting some new ground as far as LT5s are concerned.

Toddya...well that's not the first time i've been accussed of cutting new ground, LOL. in my world it's really not all that edgey. as some on here know, the car in my avatar is a 441 S.B. & off the top of my head i think the bobweight on that is 1410 gms. to get it down, titanium pins are a must, smaller diameter pins (.866"), at least .043" x .043" x 3.0mm ring pack & smaller rod journal diameter. i routinely use Honda size (1.889") & right now i'm doing one that is Mitsubishi size (1.772"). by doing that bearing speed is slower, crank is lighter, bearings are lighter & rod big end is lighter & smaller overall, which in turn also ends up giving you more swing room if you will. now this stuff is all naturally asperated so it's a little flyweight for a power adder combo, IMO. don't get me wrong Todd, 1600's is not heavy, i'm not saying that but if i'm going to do something for me...well, lets just say it has to be interesting. thanks again for your time Todd. appreciate it & didn't mean to get off topic of your original thread.
