Bob weigth

Subject: Bob weigth
by sliding on 2010/1/19 18:46:32

I was calculating bob weigth and this is what I came up with

piston - 495g - reciprocating weigth
pin - 130g - reciprocating weigth
spirolocks - 2g - reciprocating weigth
ring set - 28g - reciprocating weigth
rod small end - 191g - reciprocating weigth
rod big end - 431g - rotating weigth
bearing - 46g - rotating weigth

I was using this formula: rotating weigth + 50% of reciprocating weigth

So I came up with bob weigth of 910g but since there are two pistons
per journal total bob weigth = 1820g

Can somebody verify my numbers?

I found some strange software, Maverick racing crank balance assistant
and according to it, my bob weigth shoul be 1600g????

Here is link to Maverick page and if somebody is interested, scroll
all the way down and download the software.
