Williams Crank Shaft

[Le_Smithier]

How much is a williams crank shaft worth? in very good condition?

Cheers

Its the same as a 1.9 diesel....plenty of those in scrappies.....so only as much as you want to pay for it.

youd need the pistons aswell to fit it in an F7P + modification of the inside of the block.

 

[Le_Smithier]

So will it fit in the F7P crank case for deffo?, the con rods are the same aint they? what sort of block modifaictaion are we talkin about?

Cheers

It will fit after you have taken some of the material away from the insid eof the block/crankcase that fouls the crank due to the larger webs.

Conrods are the same, just pistons that are different....different pin height to allow for extra stroke so piston doesnt sit proud of the deck at TDC

Could i remove sed material with a dremel? or is it gonna require some engineering from hell, lol

 

[stan*]

use a die-grinder, you can pick one up from machine mart for like £15...than you just need a compressor and some cutting bits!

 

[Le_Smithier]

well me old mans got a compressor and cutting bits so i spose thats half the job sorted, lol

sorry to hijack this topic but if someone wanted to run a lower comp for a turbo could they use williams pistons in a 1.8 block with valver crank?? probably not but i just thought id ask

The 1.8 Block would require boreing out as the williams pistons are bigger, and i dont think running it on a valver crank would even drop the CR that much, if any!

Would require a lot more work that that me think mate...

Runnig the valver crank in the 2.0 block would lower the CR considerably to somehting like 5.1 I think BenR mentioned it a while back.

 

[BigBoreBri]

Now i come to think about it eddes right about the lower CR...

Its been a long day, lol

Dont BB just shave the pistons to lower the c/r?

I know Turboman had custom JE forged pistons made for his valver turbo.
