Title: once again...motor combo's
Post by: axam48ida on October 28, 2007, 22:43:36 pm
I got a set of K-roc heads coming and now I can start laying the parts out.
the scat 86 stroke that's been sitting in the box since I bought it back in 88....94mm
barrels with the wisco's matched for the heads, and as for rods and ratios
the porsche lenght gives me a 1.58 ratio....so I may need to step up to a 5.5 for a 1.62 or
5.6  1.65 ratio.........I prefer the short rod, but now listening to everyone has got me thinking.
 I have a set of carrillo 5.352 and like to use them, but I don't want to cut up the skirts on the pistons so
much.
  of course the carbs are set of 48's ..........cam wise is open....I want a motor to be fast to race if I want and
something to drive from norcal to socal ......Isn't that what we do with these cars is drive them!!!!


 I have a strong 2053 in my oval that's with 10.5 to ones and I driven it to LA and back, but I don't want to
go that high this time....
