Copperbottom has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Where do I find
A decent supplier of steel crank and rods? I've been let down big time by I.K. Engineering in Sussex and need to find a supplier of similar spec products.

I know of most of the usual UK manufacturers/suppliers but wonder if anyone knows of a european or rest of the world manufacturer that will supply direct.

I'm currently after a 77.62 stroke lotus twin cam/ford crossflow crank and rods by the way (new or used)

Website says the Twincam versions are in stock (narrow and standard journal) which is what I looked at - do they not work in a crossflow? Ah, no - shorter stroke....

Yep, tc ones are 72.75mm stroke. Anyway I'm sorted now but would definately NOT recommend I.K. Engineering (flakspeed on Ebay) from Slinfold in Sussex. (poss Loxwood also).

Burtons have now decided that the new farndon crank can't be machined so I'm now back to square one!
