does anyone know the weight of the stock ecotec crank?
horsepower is the force that determines at what speed you hit the wall, torque is the force that determines how far you take the wall with you after you hit it.
well the supposedly lightened crank i just got weighs 37 so i think your a lil off. lol

I think I read the LD9 crank weighs 52 lbs and the Quad crank weighs 56 lbs. Don't quote me on that, read it some were on here.

if it is lightened at all you didnt get jipped, figure 1 lb of rotating weight makes a whole lot more difference than just taking off 1 lb of weight, some people strive to take 100grams off of pistons and such. if it is lightened you better make sure it is zero balanced again
If we take what Dearman says then:
12 x 4 = 48 lbs
15 x 4 = 60 lbs
I would say that my numbers are pretty good then. I would think the ecotec crank would start off lighter so I think your 37 lbs crank could be 10 - 15 lbs lighter.
