Set the main caps in place, making sure each is put in the right location and facing the correct direction. Seat them by alternating tightening the nuts on either side, thereby pulling them down bit by bit. Clearly visible in this photo is another feature of the Lunati Pro Series crankshaft: the "Countoured Wing" counterweights, designed to deal appropriately with oil overspray coming out of the bearings as well as oil dripping from the valvetrain above. Unlike "knife-edge" counterweights--which simply split oil down the middle--the Lunati counterweights are specially contoured at their leading edges to direct oil (and air) away from the connecting rod journals. This reduces windage and frees up horsepower. Imagine the crank spinning clockwise in the photo and you will be able to envision this happening. View Related Article
