The SSP Forged 4140 Chromoly Counterweighted 76mm Crankshaft is a high-performance upgrade for anyone looking to build a larger, more powerful engine. Manufactured from premium 4140 chromoly steel, this crankshaft is precision ground, micro-polished, and shot peened to ensure superior strength and longevity. The counterweighted design helps balance the rotating assembly, reducing stress on the engine and improving performance, especially at lower RPMs.
With 8 dowels for enhanced reliability, this crankshaft is designed to handle the increased demands of big engine builds, providing more torque at lower RPMs. However, keep in mind that while the longer stroke increases displacement and torque. This makes it an ideal choice for street or performance builds where low-end torque and overall engine reliability are a priority. Perfect for those looking to take their VW engine rebuild to the next level.
