Total length is 127,5mm and 34mm of them goes in the block
cylinders = AA and piston is JE 432g

picture=http://bp1.blogger.com/_PK72ALI-_i0/R0msNAwGLHI/AAAAAAAAAyQ/7EVMuTr1t2Q/s400/HPIM1469.JPG

John, i have the same cylinder/piston combo with 80 mm c/w DPR crank, chevy journals and H-Beam Eagle rods.
Would the stroke be too much ? (Piston pulled out of cylinder?). How much clearancing would i have to do
inside the new T4 case.
Would you, or some other T4 head know where to get cyl. spacers and copper headshims Huh

Thank you very much,
Harry

1) Thanks
2) I know, just thought you have some additional tips were to look for.
3) Is it Griebel who made the spacers ? Does he own a machine-shop ?

I think the cunningham are the only ones you can use on 86 stroke. up to 82 mm the new Pauters work well

Actually the new Pauter stroker rods clear an 86mm stroke. Thats about 2.870" outside dia on the big end for a 2.0" Chevy/Buick jrl.
And these rods have a 5.800" - 147.32mm C to C

I dont know who Spoke is, but I like fast cars.
By the looks of the "I play to win" and "Still Fatal", major modifications has been made to the original car. If somebody should have been addressed, it must be the builder of Still Fatal..


My thoughts go to Elnef.
He has put a lot of money into buying a "nice race ready" car from the States, and by the looks of all that he has to redo, it wasnt as he expected.
Two gearboxes gone, and by the looks of the comments on UAC, due to bad tranny/engine support...

The extra time, money and effort that he now has to put into the car to make it RACE-ready is huge.

Good Luck with the rebuild! Hope you will be ready for SCC2011!!!!
