BBC 2,000 hp crank

Want some info forge crankshaft on bbc blown alkys to get 2,000 hp.

I hear go billet..... but some say it's overkill
Then think about 4340 forge cranks... but don't know which is best for 2,000 hp application.

BBC 540 1471 hi helix
Fuel setup to feed 2000hp
Power glide
Rail mud racer

 

I ran a 4340 Crower in a 2800lb 1/8 mile car with an F rotor SSI 14/71 at 54% over with no issues.

 

BBC Lunati Blower Crank/forged 4340

I ran a Lunati 4.25" stroke blower crank in a 540ci BBC for 12 years with no problems and went as fast as 4.04 and mainly 4 teens with no concerns except the six crank flexplate bolts, I had to keep a real close watch on them as they would loosen after 5 or 6 runs. I red loctited and tried everything and if running a BBC again, I would order an 8 bolt hemi flange on the rear. I hope this helps and we ran a Powerglide too with a 14-71 Kobelco Superman. THANKS! and Good Luck! Jim

I ran a forged crower on my 2400 hp SBC and have one on a 3500 hp 481X

 

We just use the stock GM cranks 3.76 stroke, twist the motor up to 9600.
Has run 5.96 @ 242, works good.

The callies magnum with NO lightning holes is what my ODDY"S built 540 had in it & we mad 2439hp & 1736TQ we made 50 1/8 mile passes, changed rods, bearings, springs & rings, always magged the crank, NEVER had an issue, WE DID RUN A CRANK SUPPORT , and I wouldn't run a chevy without it , The howards PRO series crankshaft is made from the same Louisville forge steel, heat treated and machined by callies , years ago it was about 600 cheeper to by the howards, but I couldn't tell you prices now.
