can someone with one of those programs that search for parts interchangability tell me what other models a 1976 yz 250 crank will fit?
part number # 509-11400-00

thanks very much!

I dont have a program but I have a crank and later one also ,the dimensions are a bit different .Stick with 75/76 .

the pipe s are different so the 77/78 has fins cut to suit where the 75 /76 doesnt.Internally the combustion dome is off set to the rear on the later models.

Webco heads are the best for these bikes.

I've riden a 400C with a D head on it and it went well - not sure about the 250, but it shouldn't be too different.
