Ohio Crank: Harry Thor Letter and Video – 6/17/2019

Hi Stan,

We were in sand drag today and set the best time ever at Iceland yes 3.06 seconds.

That combo is wonderful. We know nothing about boost and just have timing on safe side 22-degrees advance. After weekend we get a complete Racepak to read all this info we need.

Thanks Stan,
Harry Thor and Valur
Iceland

Note: Harry’s rear engine dragster (near lane) is powered by an Ohio Crankshaft 516-cubic inch short block/Procharger combination in his sand dragster. He also has an Ohio Crank 598 normally aspirated engine in his dragstrip altered.

NEW SMALL BLOCK CRANKSHAFT LINE FEATURES BIG BLOCK SNOUT

Ohio Crankshaft announces their new line of durable nitrided 4340 Crankshafts that are designed with a damper/balancer snout of big block Chevrolet dimensions. ” Many companies have specially designed dampers specifically designed to combine the big block snout to the dampening specs of a small block engine,” comments Scott Ray from Ohio Crank. “Our new crank design offers tremendous strength for engines that utilize a supercharger drive or additional drives on the front of the small block Chevy.”

Other features for this new line include an aircraft quality nitrided 4340 forging, profiled aerowing counterweights, straight shot oiling passages and an extra 1/4 keyway. The target bobweight is 1,900 grams. There are currently four models offered with 350- and 400-inch main dimensions and stroke choices of 3.480-, 3.750-, 3.875-, and 4.000-inches.
