What do you guys think that I should do to this forged crank. Keep this in mind I need POWER. I am just starting to really think things through with this engine build so anything is possible, but to get the most out of a 300 what should be done to prep this crank so that it may live a long time in a race engine. Heres the thing, its not going to be a drag motor or a circle track motor, I am going to build this engine to run for max MPH. So revs are nice but at top end grunt(Torque) counts to and revolving weight will help, but I got to get there first. Knife edging, counter weight reduction, balancing, these are where I was going but any suggestions or additions will be greatly appreciated.

Yeah I dug that up after I read your reply in my intro post. Thats really cool and scarry. What else though, maybe Im just being paranoid, its not like I cant pull the crank back out and mod it later. So if I cut the counter weights down to match rods and pistons, edge the surfaces of the weights so there is no resistance from oil sump, balance the crap out of it, I should be good to go.
