    289W @ 302W Crankshafts

     



    Another one of those "Whats the Difference Questions"........How do you tell the difference between 302W & 289W crankshafts? I have collected bits and peices for both over the years and never marked any of it. Now I want to build up a engine for my 1928 Model A rod I need to work the parts out. Thanks for any help. It is early 289/302 motors.

    Cranks

     



    Found on another forum. Does it sound right?

    The 289 crank has 1M on it and the 302 crank 2M (somewhere on a counterweight).

    The 289 crank has a 2.87" stroke and the 302 has 3", so using a 289 crank with (shorter) 302 rods will give you a 289 CID engine with the pistons not sticking up far enough
