to build or not to build

[talon guy]

alright i know the whole thing about cw ( don't wanna say the whole word :rolleyes )and everything for a 7bolt. but my question is, is it easier to build a 7bolt race motor and have it hold up jst as well..or is it easier to buy and built a 6bolt and have it hold jst as well..but my most important ? is that if i completely build a 7bolt, then can i get rid of cw? like get a new balanced crank and get it knife edged or w/e and get new bearings and shit or is it jst plain old better to go w/ a 6bolt.

with any 7 bolt there is no guarrantee it wont walk. if your building a motor...just build a 6 bolt and not worry bout it.

Measure...
Realize building a 7b isnt a good idea
You have happy thoughts... keep thinking them!
Good man 6b is where it is for a "race setup" :thumb

your first step should be to save up 1500, 2000 if youre going knife edge crank

Im not one of the crankwalk chicken littles but even I would say... put it in a 6bolt, its good insurance.
