I recently stumbled across and crankshaft. I have no idea what it is the work Okrasa in stampped on it along with 78.4 If anyone knows anything about what I have please let me know. What is it worth and is it worth using to build an engine with? everything I searched for tells me that this may be outdated but I have no idea.  So if anyone can help thanks |

Okrasso is an original German crankshaft. It is a 78.4mm stroke. If it is still servicable, yes it is worth using. If your looking to sell, a good used Okrasso is worth more then a new Chinese crank.
