steel crankshaft for cortina lotus mk1 period F

Hi everyone,this is my first post and i'm wondering if anyone can help me clarify this.

I'm building an lotus cortina engine to run at the u2tc events and i don't know if it's eligible to run a steel crankshaft with 8 conter weights.

Hello engine builder, and welcome to the forum.

I presume you have looked at article 5.8 of Appendix K, but for clarification can't the organisers give you a definitive answer? I'm sure they have their own eligibility scrutineer for U2TC.

Farndon/QED EN19 steel crank is pretty much a direct replacement for the original, 4 bolt 4 dowel rope seal.

I'm sure lots of people use the EN40 Carlos Fandango ones but they're not correct

I section rods as well
