Notes
Conforms to FIA Appendix K
Tested to 10,000 RPM
Increasing the performance of an engine via the crankshaft does not make sense at first glance, but it is worth taking a closer look.
The mechanical efficiency of an engine, which, together with the thermodynamic efficiency and the volumetric efficiency, determines the rated output of an engine, depends fundamentally on the diameter of the crankshaft bearings and the friction in the bearings.
Of course, the diameter cannot be easily changed, but the friction can, which in turn depends on the bending loads and the resulting vibrations of the crankshaft. This is exactly why the use of top-quality titanium connecting rods is of little use if the resulting significantly reduced rotating masses at the connecting rod foot are not also taken into account on the counterweight side of the crankshaft.
Because only a perfectly designed crankshaft, calculated for the connecting rod weights, actually brings with it less bearing friction due to eliminated vibrations, and thus an increase in performance. Furthermore, this crankshaft is speed-resistant up to 11,000 rpm and tested in continuous operation up to 10,000 rpm. A pleasant side effect is of course a reduced load on the crankcase and less wear.
This crankshaft is designed utilising the latest calculation methods using CAD and FE methods (finite elements), but is still FIA legal for historic motorsport and conforms to Annex K, but is only designed for operation with steel connecting rods. The focus was on the FIA regulation that " in the case of a new production, the original or the newly manufactured component may be lightened, which was exactly the case with this crankshaft.
If you want to run this crankshaft with titanium connecting rods, use crankshaft part number 91610201600/1 which is designed for the lower rotating masses of titanium connecting rods. Failure to comply with the mass balance will sooner or later lead to the crankshaft breaking at maximum speeds.
Furthermore, this crankshaft is an authentic replacement for every standard crankshaft of the 911 from 1965 to 1971, i.e. every 2.0ltr and 2.2ltr engine.
