To try and not have the same results with my odd fire crankshaft that happened with the even fire crank (broken off snout).Should I try to keep my same rotating weight as I have now and not try lightening and stroking the crank more and going with a lighter piston and rod set plus use a different balancer or keep all about same rotating weight.Im just hoping between the deep drilled holes in the counter weights and the fluid damper I just don’t want to end up with the same results as the even fire set up.

Could this be the result of the way the crank was balanced with the fluid damper or the results of the even fire split pin crankshaft be to weak as of only having half the journal on each side.
