Let's discuss. When would it be a absolute have to have for a 12v cummins. What horsepower or sustained rpm would a person need to put a counterweighted or full counterweighted crank along with a set of hd rods and girdle. I've been told anything underload over 5300 rpms you need a crank and girdle. Hopefully some of the high horsepower sled guys will chime in here. What is the best girdle as far as ease of installment and actually ties all the main caps and oil pan together out there? Which crank is better? Fully counterweighted or partially counterweighted?
 
Scott was running a regular crank and cryo rod's in his Mod Puller. Until he blew the block he had a weighted crank and billet rod's installed.

So he had a regular crank and cyro rods, then blew the block, and is now running a weighted crank and billet rods? Or the other way around.
 
Yes Scott was running the Original's now is running a weighted Crank and Billet Rod's.

Chris and His dad both said that he didn't really need them. It lasted ton's of hook's and so many years.

It's all in the tuning LOL
