Seeing the HP and LP marked on the crankshaft does it have different throws or journal diameters for each?
Metric sizes on a Stuart drawing, whatever next
About how much did that billet weigh? It seems a monster.

That sounds a bit much, assuming it started out as 4" bar then it would need to be just over 3ft long to weigh 60kg 60lbs would be nearer the mark

The full set of castings for this engine were last seen being loaded into the boot (trunk) of Jo's car, your guess is as good as mine what happened to them after that
