right now i have the k24a1 block, with the stock crank.

ive been lookinginto grabbing another crank for the build.

did some looking around i found out that.

RDX crank is stronger/thicker in some areas of the crank

tsx designed differently (counteweights) *black nitide coated*

f20c/f22c requires heavy modifcation of the snout to work properly *black nitride coating*


k20a2 crank is counter balenced *black nitride coated*

k20a3 no cating nonbalenced

couple of guys over at k20a weighd the cranks.

crv = 40 even
tsx= 38.708 with block wieghting 47.808

pounds

2 different scales

so i have the heaviest, un coated crank right now. aka one of the not so great cranks?

thinkingabout getting tsx rods, and i have a k20a2 oil pump in it now with the scatter sheild and oil pan and the il cooler from the rsx-s , whats a better crank that fits the prior mods i have done to the block?

 

If I was you I would stay with the stock crank and have it Balanced/Micro polished by someone like Laskey Racing.

If you want to buy another crank then go with the RDX crank.

every crankshaft has its designed weight, counterweight shape, coatings, etc...make sure you pick the crank which is going around your building goals and what you want your motor to do...street or race

street drivable to the strip whenever i fel like it is the intended goal, with daily driving not in mind.

 

The guys at K20A.ORG will probably help you more on here but if your set on buying a new crank then get the RDX crank, it is the strongest. All the Honda cranks are designed to last ***,***+ miles If it is built right the crank will be the last thing that will fail on you.

 

then you grab a custom 4340 forged racing crank with reduced/reshaped counterweights and overall lighter design specs...$$$ otherwise youre stuck with what honda makes you
