OUR ONLINE CHECKOUT is CLOSED and we are NOT accepting any NEW orders at this time.

We are still fulfilling and shipping previously submitted and/or delayed order requests (as product availability allows) UNTIL NOVEMBER 15th 2022.

But after November 15th, all still pending backordered unshipped items will be automatically CANCELLED **(except for any special ordered drop-shipped or made/machined-to-order items).

Our ability to respond to emails is greatly hampered by being under-staffed during this downsize transition time. But we continue to endeavor to answer email inquiries as best we can. And we will continue responding to emails through until early March 2023 because we are wholly committed to resolving any other issues that may arise from previous sales. It is still UNCERTAIN, but we may re-open a substantially downsized version of our store again in the Spring of 2023.

We sincerely appreciate your patience, understanding during this period of restructuring and/or closing. And a huge thank you to all of you whose support and loyalty we have been the beneficiary of over the 23 years that we have worked diligently to support the information and parts needs of the aircooled VW community!

DPR DELUXE Type 1 Counterweighted Stroker Crankshaft, Type 1 Rod Journals, REBUILT
DPR DELUXE Type 1 Counterweighted Stroker Crankshaft, Type 1 Rod Journals


 
DPR DELUXE Type 1 Counterweighted Stroker Crankshaft, Type 1 Rod Journals are the finest crankshafts available under $1k. Yes a SCAT or Moldex $1400 crank is nicer, but SERIOUSLY? These are made from Forged German Crankshaft Cores, they always spec out PERFECT, which is not true of most other crankshafts. While other cranks are "new" they often have problems with journal sizing, journal taper, balance, etc. These cranks by DPR are a fantastic value, what you are getting for the money is incredible! This crankshaft is drilled for the 8 dowels in the standard SPG pattern, but the dowel pins are NOT INCLUDED, and must be purchased separately.

While on the surface it doesn't make sense to get a "Used" crankshaft as opposed to a new Chinese one, here is why! The stock VW German OEM crankshaft is the finest crank ever produced for the VW engine. The alloy and manufacturing process is superior to all other cranks produced in Brazil, Mexico or China. So the German Crankshafts are the Foundation used on all DPR produced crankshafts. These cores are magnafluxed (checked for internal flaws), then welded and meticulously machined, balanced and heat treated. THESE SPEC OUT PERFECT!!!!

TYpe 1 Rod Journals are used so you can use stock bearings and connecting rods, but the savvy engine builder uses Porsche Length Rods (5.325") to negate some of the deck height increase, which minimizes your cylinder base shims!
