Bmc Inline En40b Billet 970 Crankshaft Formula Junior, Formula 2, Cooper on 2040-parts.com
Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States
This is not a direct replacement for a 970 Cooper S Mini. Check out my other auctions - I have 6" billet rods and pistons that will likely work in a factory Mini Cooper 970 configuration. Custom built billet crank 2.45 stroke by Ro-Dy in Plymouth, Michigan. Ro-Dy creates and repairs crankshafts for Moldex, Huffaker, and numerous race teams in North America. Excellent craftsmanship, fully balanced and in excellent condition. Built for Bonneville and based on the 970 cooper specification, this inline configured crankshaft was the heart of our 2014 Bonneville class record with an A-series 1275 block. Two articles about our record breaking runs at Bonneville are featured in the January and February 2015 issues of MG Enthusiast Magazine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRYNKIMGCEs BMC made very few competition 970 inline forgings for the A-series - most factory 970 forgings were intended for transverse layouts in the Mini Cooper S. I've only ever seen one factory short-stroke inline forging for sale in the last 8 years. It's likely I'd still be waiting if I hadn't had this piece created. If you are running in an old Formula 2 or Junior class, a minor offset grind to 2.439 stroke and undersized bearings should put you into compliance. Given the scarcity of factory competition inline short-stroke forgings, this provides a superior, lighter and less costly option. It's a fair bet that any factory piece is going to require a regrind at this point, so with this crank, you're starting with newer, superior material. Free shipping to the lower 48 United States, but it's my suspicion this piece will likely be sold in Europe, Japan, New Zealand or Australia. Please contact me for an international shipping quote. I know it's an oddball, and that I have way too much money in it, but if you're looking for a high revving A-series capable of 9500 RPM without scattering, you're looking at the solution. I've got a set of 6" billet rods and pistons available if you're looking to build a bullet proof, 1 liter screamer. Check out my other auctions. |

Six-door Mercedes 600 Pullman Landaulet barn-find sold for £450k
Mon, 10 Feb 2014Oh goodness, this Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman Landaulet is quite possibly this author’s favourite car ever to come up for auction. Pinpointing exactly why we love it so much is hard, probably because there are just so many reasons. But when we saw it featuring in the top 10 sales at this week’s RM Auctions Paris sale, we couldn’t move on with our lives without giving it a gallery all for itself.
