CRANKSHAFTS

We offer crankshafts from leading manufacturers such as Scat, Eagle, RPM, and Ohio. These crankshafts come in cast steel or 4340 forged steel.

Cast crankshafts are an excellent alternative to O.E. Cranks. These crankshafts are new cast pieces made with modern material and casting processes to be a great alternative to 30-year-old factory cranks. Recommended for use in street engines without power adders. Many factory cranks we check have stress cracks, so even though your crank has not broken yet, you may have a problem developing that could destroy your engine.

Butler Performance also offers Pontiac 4340 forged cranks from many of the same manufacturers in a variety of sizes, and include the latest in oiling technology. Forged Cranks offer a tremendous advantage in strength and durability over cast cranks. This is very inexpensive insurance to protect your engine and even if it's not needed at your current horsepower level now. Upgrading to a forged crank to build a solid bottom end will give you the option to safely upgrade performance and increase horsepower without having to worry about costly breakdowns in the future.

Most cranks offer standard oiling while some may offer Straight Shot Oiling. (noted in crank description)


BORE SIZES

Butler Performance chooses to start Bore Size options for rotating assemblies, short blocks, long blocks, and engines at .030" over. Most engines have normal wear and machining the block and honing the cylinders to .030" over will ensure that you have a good foundation to install your assembly into. This ensures the pistons and rings will seat properly and be within specs and tolerances for building an engine capable of performance, horsepower, and longevity usually found in a Butler Engine.

 


RINGS

Butler Performance uses Total Seal piston rings in most of our engines and assemblies. The main reason for this is their ability to build ring sets for us using rings from most of the major ring manufacturers as well as their own rings. This gives us a huge selection and Total Seal will custom build ring sets for almost any application if it's not an in-stock part. We offer Total Seal rings in several different styles:

 

  • Classic Race (CR) sets are traditional, non- gapless sets using plasma-moly top rings.
  • AP Advanced Stainless Top Ring (CS) are manufactured from 440B stainless steel and use a C33 face coating which cylinder wall wear. Stronger, Longer life and Most Precise Tolerances
  • Gapless Top (M) sets use a 2 piece gapless top ring. These are the latest design by Total Seal and were made possible by the better ring materials developed over the last few years. The top gapless sets are designed to prevent trapping pressure between the top and second rings.

We also offer TNT, stainless, dykes, and diamond lapped sets from Total Seal. If you don't see what you need, contact us and we can get it for you.

Std Rings- The rings are normally "Drop-In" Style rings. These still may require additional filing for your application.

File Fit- The rings are usually .005" over the desired bore size so they can be filed to fit.

Example; Total Seal CR, .030 Over, File Fit, 4.150+5 Bore
This is a Total Seal brand, Classic Race Series ring used in a .030" over bore application. The stock bore is 4.120" plus the .030" making it a 4.150" bore size. The ring will actually measure 4.155" so that there is an extra .005" so it can be filed to fit the desired ring gap.


PINS

We offer a wrist pin upgrade for all rotating assemblies and short blocks. Standard wrist pins that come in our rotating assemblies are rated up to 800hp naturally aspirated. Standard Pins are Ross Racing 5115 Chromoly, .150" Straight wall/128 gram.

Upgraded wrist pins are Ross Racing Bearing Steel .220 Straight Wall Bearing Steel /195 gram. Rated for use in higher horsepower applications.

 


RODS

We offer rods from several major manufacturers such as Scat, Eagle, Callies, Compstar, Oliver, and more.

Most rods in our rotating assembly's are high tensile 4340 Forged H-beam from Eagle or Scat. All rods are full floating, bushed unless otherwise noted. Oliver Billet I-Beam rods, which are regarded as one of the strongest connecting rods available, are offered as an upgrade in most of these rotating assemblies.

Select assemblies may offer our budget 5140 Forged I-beam replacement rods where applicable.

Most rods come with stock ARP8740 rod bolts are rated at a tensile strength of 190,000 psi. Upgraded ARP2000 rod bolts rated at 220,000 are also available.


MAIN & ROD BEARINGS

Our rotating assemblies come standard with Federal Mogul bearings with an option to select Clevite main & rod bearings

Most Forged crankshafts require narrowed Performance or Race bearings because of the larger radius’s on the cranks main and rod journals.

  • Federal Mogul (FMP)- M series main bearings
  • Federal Mogul (FMP)-CH series rod bearings
  • Clevite (C77)- H series main bearings
  • Clevite (C77)- HN series narrow rod bearings

The Butler Process

All rotating assemblies sold by Butler Performance, regardless of brand, are balanced in our shop by our experienced machinists.

Most other shops offer assemblies unbalanced or charge additional balancing fees.

We don't take anyone else's word when it comes to the parts we stand behind. We put all rotating assemblies through the Butler Process for quality and performance. Our internal balancing process ensures each part of the kit is put through a multi-step inspection process. We then weigh and pin fit the rods and pistons as needed. We computer balance the crankshaft to the rest of the assembly. This process ensures that all the parts of the assembly are matched to form a "Butler Performance" worthy assembly. We then document all weights and information on a balance card that ships with the assembly.
