Build that 1915cc, drive it! Finish your school, start working and build the engine you want. That's my view Tongue

Hey diederick, if you go 78mm and use VW rods, with my old case, you should be able to keep engine width just about the same as it would be as a 1914. those cylinders I sent you are machined .040" off the top for less deck and better sealing. You may need a small cylinder shim, but your geometry should be fine. If not do you remember how to check it? Just watch thread count above the nut. The 78mm will also help get your CR higher without plunge cutting your heads. I think 2165cc with your 130 and these heads will run well. Reminds me of John Rayburn's old motor (13.00 on radials)

Rayburn's old engine? What did it look like?

I'm thinking of 78.4x94 (2176) cos I like the number  Grin
But I just gotta figure a few things out. I need a crank and stroker pistons. I should be able to still use my cut pushrods, right? I still remember the geometry lesson, and I saved it on my pc.

Fortunately, I think I can practice on my brother's yet-to-be-build engine  Cheesy Wink

p.s. am I right to assume that in this configuration my 37mm venturies won't suffice?

Hey Diederick.... thinking about your car last night...
Have you ever thought about 5-lug chrome 5.5" wheels, like 356 style, with no hubcaps? Or even with 356-style nipple caps?
Just thinking your car would look very good, like an early cal look car with those wheels.
37mm vents will run, but 40mm would be better.

if you use those rods (VW) on 82, you are going to have to grind some stuff......
Maybe a set of 5.352 rods on VW journal?

I can't believe it but Rimco rods on my 74 are hitting roof in Sheep's case. I'm done for the day before I start throwing things

Come on Died, it's time to get yourself a big motor. So build that 1915!! The stroker can come later when you have work.

Are you afraid of building it???
