Regarding material everyone manufacturer has their preferred product.

So for an engine that is projected to make 320RWK at 7500rpm what to use.
Do I need a crank that is made out of titanium or cast steel.
Is the material the critical factor or is the balancing and end weight.
So after a bit of a think I have placed an order with Bryant Racing in the US crank made from billet 4340 Timken steel lightened knife edged and balanced 12 week lead time.
See how we go this time I guess.
