Seems like Jake will be out of reach for the next few weeks...so...anyone know the cost differance between staying at 71mm and upgrading to 78mm stroke?
my rods already need to be re-worked due to the pistons I'm going to use, so no loss there, I'm guessing new rods would be in order for the longer stroke....I have no idea what crank is going to cost, nor the rods....can a 1.8 crank be used so that I can at least sell my 2.0 rods and crank to help cover the additional costs?? |

Mike, get over to http://www.aircooled.net and look at the prices for stroker cranks and H-beam rods. Get Type I journals, as their rods are a lot cheaper than Type IV ones.
I don't know if a 78mm crank throw requires a reduced-base-circle cam or not. If so, that's extra work for you to do. And don't forget all the time you will spend quadruple-checking everything and grinding down anything that interferes... --DD |
