CRANK SUPPORT IS DESIGNED TO BE USED WITH MOTORPLATE OFF THE WATERPUMP HOLES. USING A MOTORPLATE ON THE LOWER HOLES WILL MAKE FOR A CUSTOM APPLICATION THAT THE BUYER WILL HAVE TO HAVE THE ABILITY TO DO MODIFICATIONS FOR CORRECT INSTALLATION. *** This support has been designed to minimize the bending stress imposed on the snout of the crankshaft caused by harmonics and/or driving a supercharger. Few people realize just how much a crankshaft can distort during harmonics, or that supercharger belt load can be in excess of 3000 pounds when detonation occurs. With the supercharger belt pulling the crank snout upwards and the first two piston and rod assembles pressing downward, this area of the crankshaft is in need of some additional support.

By adding a crank snout support, in essence a sixth main bearing, the vulnerable unsupported snout has less chance of bending and breaking. Race engines, especially those prone to detonation, are the applications most in need of this support.

The aluminum bracket and stand assembly that hold the front bearing mounts to the front of the block off the four 7/16" bolt holes. Kits include mounting plates, stands, bearing and hardware. RBS can set up the crank support to be used with crank trigger at an additional cost if desired.

Fits 396, 402, 427, 454 and most other aftermarket big block Chevy engine combinations. Crank supports are designed for competition use and have no provision for an alternator.

Racer can choose alum. or black anodized finish from drop down menu.
