Title: Engine build advice Post by: Rich_h on February 16, 2014, 19:58:02 pm So I'm looking for some advice on my next motor build its a street & strip engine based around parts I've been collecting
so I have 74mm CB crank Street Eliminator (42 x 37.5) 94 bore 94mm a spec pistons Fk87 My questions is it best to run a set of Cb Super Race Rods - VW rod journal - 5.325" Or Cb Super Race Rods - VW rod journal - 5.400" With barrel spacers On this spec Cheers Rich Title: Re: Engine build advice Post by: spanners on February 19, 2014, 17:26:48 pm With that short stroke you could use the short rods with good results, the higher piston speed/accelerations give good cylinder filling, but why only the 74 stroke? just Be sure to check piston underside clearance on the crank webs at BDC ,

Title: Re: Engine build advice Post by: Rich_h on February 21, 2014, 00:34:46 am I have been collected bit over the last few years and in so my build has change over & over again
The first plan was to be 74mm & 92mm 1967cc but the 94mm cut heads turned up so all Change Plus want to build something different ;D |
