I6 cranks flex under heavy load.
All engines have counter balanced cranks, minus the Subaru H4's....

So hows about you STFU, untill you have a clue yeah?


Do you have any proof to back this up Paul?

I trust wikipedia is a fairly reputable source and these sort of things should be entered in to as discussions, not as arguments with insults flying.

If you disagree with something that is said, state so, then provide some proof / evidence to back up your claim. Now, please share more information on this topic.

Hmm, I do.
Albeit hard to put on the intrawebz. (Factory service manuals FTW)

Gimme a tic, and i'll find something.

But to start with.
Have any of you seen the crank out of any engine other than a Subaru?

Counter balanced.

Not counter balanced.
Oright if your redline is 5rpm...

Problem is they flex when there is a large amount of load put on the engine. Flexing is baaad juju.

Look at the lengths of those freaking conrods LOL!!! what is that crank out of??? A 45 Willy's Jeep or something LOL!! And why did this subject get onto cranks?? I doubt anyone here is going to be playing around with an engine that doesn't have a counter-balanced shaft.

What in the hell is that ugly worm of a crankshaft from?

I would have gone to the kitchen, collected a brown bag, dropped my dacks, pinched off a loaf in said bag, done up dacks, stickytaped bag, placed bag in envelope, and mailed it right to your face for being such a tool.


It's ok, sometimes when we herp, we also derp.

The bodgy ones are out of a Model A ford. Just goes to show how old the technology is, and why I said what I said to Blaeven.
