L-98 Crank weight ?
I am considering buying a lightweight crank for a bottom end rebuild. I would like to know what the stock crank weighs to try and figure out what I really will be saving buying a lightweight one.
TIA<

I ordered one yesterday. I got a 34 lbs. one. I can not wait to see the difference in the car.
