Why Should You Invest in an LS Crank Pinning Kit?
Are you looking to upgrade your LS engine's performance? The LS Crank pinning kit is a must-have for serious enthusiasts and professionals. Without properly securing the crankshaft pulley, high RPMs and belt-driven accessories can lead to pulley slippage or worse. Let’s dive into why this kit is crucial and how it helps you get the most out of your build.
The Superior Design of LS Crank Pinning Kits
Not all crank pinning kits are created equal. Massive Speed System has designed the LS Crank pinning kit to be as precise and user-friendly as possible. Using a billet aluminum fixture with a carbide drill guide bushing, this tool ensures that your dowel pin is installed accurately, without damaging the crankshaft. Other tools on the market lack this level of precision, which can result in costly mistakes.
The kit includes everything you need to secure your crank pulley properly. With a 1/4" drill bit, five dowel pins, washers, and high-quality assembly bolts, you’re ready to tackle the job with confidence. And, of course, Massive Speed System’s signature purple anodized finish not only looks great but also resists corrosion, ensuring the longevity of your tools and engine components.
Why You Need an LS ARP Crank Bolt
Another key component in this process is the LS ARP Crank bolt. The crankshaft bolt is a load-bearing fastener that endures immense pressure from both twisting and lateral forces. Unfortunately, OEM crank bolts stretch during use and can only be used once, making it necessary to replace them during engine work.
That’s where the LS ARP Crank bolt from Massive Speed System comes in. This bolt is made from Grade 12.9 high-strength steel, providing superior tensile strength of 197,000 PSI. What sets this crank bolt apart is its extended length, which allows for deeper engagement into the crankshaft threads. This feature is especially useful if your crank threads are damaged, as it enables you to bypass the ruined threads and secure the pulley effectively.
How the LS Crank Pinning Kit and LS ARP Crank Bolt Work Together
The combination of the LS Crank pinning kit and the LS ARP Crank bolt creates a foolproof solution for performance LS builds. By ensuring that the crankshaft pulley is locked in place with the dowel pin and held tight with a superior-grade crank bolt, you eliminate the risk of pulley movement or crankshaft damage. This tandem is particularly critical for high-performance applications, where every component is pushed to its limits.
Together, these tools provide a robust solution to common issues faced in performance LS engines. Whether you're prepping your car for the track or simply looking to enhance your street build, the crank pinning kit and crank bolt are critical for ensuring that your LS engine can handle the extra strain without compromising reliability.
A Long-Lasting Solution for Performance Engines
At Massive Speed System, the focus is on providing high-quality, durable products that meet the demands of performance enthusiasts. The LS Crank pinning kit and LS ARP Crank bolt are both reusable and designed for long-term use, unlike many OEM components that wear out over time.
