RE: Laystall crankshaft - Stuart Giles - 16-05-2021 (16-05-2021, 04:58 PM)Jack in the Box Wrote: Stuart, Haha, I'd forgotten the one from the Biggs special. Yours must be even more valuable than the Ebay one with all that extra patina The broken one I mentioned, Mo Fuller showed me sometime in 70's. At the time Mo owned the ex Doc Bennett Supersports, but I don't think the crank came out of that car. As well as the break, the bolts were rather scarily stretched. RE: Laystall crankshaft - Bob Culver - 16-05-2021 If it were not for the complication of oil duct could pull together with a tie bolt. A tensioned bolt has vastly higher resistance to fatigue (ie con rod bolts). Some fitted tie bolts to Bradford cranks as near all are cracked (but being cast iron survive for decades in that state) RE: Laystall crankshaft - Tony Press - 17-05-2021 I thought we had discussed thi before- in 2019: The chance of new crankshafts and rod etc (austinsevenfriends.co.uk) RE: Laystall crankshaft - Hedd_Jones - 17-05-2021 (16-05-2021, 07:54 PM)Alan Wrote: Might have to - I have a drawing somewhere I think Give Mr Sharma in Wolverhampton a call. He will make you any crank so long as you cross his palm with enough silver. RE: Laystall crankshaft - Tony Betts - 17-05-2021 hi hedd, i may be wrong, but i beleive nash at wolverhampton has handed the business onto family after illness. the family dont seam to be looking for crank manufacture for old cars at the moment? many of the crank manufacturers seam to have had problems, or closed. over the last year. its a shame, but the world has and is changing. tony. RE: Laystall crankshaft - Robert Foreman - 17-05-2021 Here's the crankshaft that was in Dr Bennett's car. I wonder what the cutaways in the sump gauze flange are for?
