looks fine, but I'd still get it checked for peace of mind.
a mate built up a TS1 recently with new crank, only to find when he first started it up that the flywheel was rubbing due to twisted crank...
You won't need any piston shims with that rod/webs clearance.

OK Byron,
i've found someone locally who can check it for "peace of mind".
Will find the tolerance in Sticky's bible.

Thanks everyone for advice.

If Yanker can confirm that it's the same stuff previously sold by Mec Eur ;)

Yup: That is a 'big-end-shimmed' MEC (as used to be) GP 'Race' crank in the new packaging, no doubt on that. Should be good to 22BHP out of the box

Soz for the delay in replying ;>)

Byron, i have it checked locally and no problem at all: between 0,01 and 0,03 mm from side to side.
Thanks for "peace of mind".

Yanker, cheers for the specs of this crank: 22BHP-proof is far enough for my GT186 with Ancilotti (even with expansion..,isn't it?)
