After selling my 2.2ltr engine I have now had a custom crank made to spec and combined with a 1999 5SFE block and rev3 head. Let the build commence......

Sounds interesting! Is it a billet crank, and who made it for you?
You building the engine yourself?

Hey chaps,
I can't take all the credit. After lots of conversations with my machine shop and some ideas from Scott in America, some good guys at Weisco for the custom pistons. I have almost everything to build the block. After the initial block work I will get pics up.
This is a forged crank and apart from the skilled machining yes I'm going to put her together..
How's your car getting on John?

So is this a 5S crank that you've had the big end offsets ground out on, or is it a bespoke billet crank?

That's exactly right Ashley 5S offset ground, custom pistons to correct the deck height etc.
