Short Snout Crank Dimensions

[bluefire]

Hi I need help identifying the short snout crank. Does the snout actually narrow in thickness as it comes away from the motor? I Measured the rear and front edge of the oil pump portion of the crank and they both came out to about 41mm. If someone can give me some dimensions or even a general way to tell which crank I have that would be very helpful

You should just be able to tell by looking at the wear the oil pump has created on the crank itself. If the wear mark is about 12mm long then you have a 33 crank. If its only about 4mm then its a pre 94 r32 crank.

Yeah the wear mark is about 12mm long... So I am guessing the crank has been changed, since the block is an R32

maybe, but late model 32s had the later style crank too.

If your crank looks like this one, its the early R32 short drive...

This is the long drive

Yeah the snout looks like the second one except for the hole... I am guessing that is a short snout crank with a collar fitted?
