To Stroke or not to Stroke: An analytical review

[EVO-00X]

Found this pdf document on the Buschur forums which I havent had a chance to read yet. Thought you guys might like to have a read too: http://www.kidzuku.com/StrokeOrNot.pdf

Man I only just copied over that table from Mikey's link. Just so we have an image on file here for reference lol

Or you could have referenced Marcos list Rob.
It's a bit more in depth than most others out there.

the magnus one is the one I have always looked at, only problem is they list 92mm crank instead of 94mm'

im thinking my next engine will be a 2.2 long rod destroker

 

[brisvr4]

I'm just thinking simple... 2.0 long rod.

 

[DOUGMO]

people are getting nice results with long rod 2.0, it should last well too

 

[evopwr]

Would the pistons/rods be custom items for a 2.0L long rod, or are there off-the-shelf products out there to cater?

 

[GeoKez]

The Magnus site shows forgies for everything from 150mm to 162mm and all piston sizes. Not sure about local availability, or stock stuff from other models.

The extra 3000rpm would make the Evo gear ratio work better too?

 

[4piknup]

Skyline rods will be correct for one of those cranks. They are somewhere between 150-156mm long. The catalogue says they are right big end size. Maybe they go with the d68?
