I am interested in building a 2270 engine. From what I can see I will need a stroker crank with a 78 mm throw. I am concerned about which rod to choose. I have seen stroker cranks with VW type 1 journals as well as 2.0 liter and chevy. I have noticed variations in rod lengths as well. I am in need of some advise on a good, proven combination. I know there are many good engine builders on his forum that could share their knowledge on this subject so please do...............Thanks

Part of the disagreement would appear to be that you guys are using two different definitions of "less heat". I believe that Jake is saying that less heat was staying in the heads and in the oil, while DB was referring to the overall heat produced by the engine, including those and heat being radiated away and heat coming out the exhaust, etc.
Physics is physics; to make more power you burn more fuel and produce more total heat. But that heat does not have to go into the heads and into the oil; it can leave through the exhaust among other things. And my guess (just a guess!) is that this is how both of you can be right at the same time... --DD |
