VA CRANKSHAFT for wet clutch engine. My engine has recently been rebuilt by a respected engineering firm. I bought this crank on the basis that my old one was likely to have been damaged by the broken bearings. This proved not to be the case so I still have the spare. Originally thought to be for a dry clutch engine it's now confirmed this is the wet clutch type. Big ends 70 thou undersize and main bearings 40 thou, so only suitable for engines being rebuilt with white metal bearings as opposed to shells. Asking £300.
