After a crude search on Google, I found one for sale at $1600... Is that high/low/normal?

are you going for the funky swirl wiseco's? my math conversion is bad, is .060 a 90mm bore? that'd put you close to 2.2. are you going up to 10k ?


check out ib's ultralite rods

I'm thinking about taking the motor to IB, knifing and balancing a '04 crank, custom Ultralite rods, custom wiseco pistons, and overbore to 90mm for a square 90x90 setup. that would be super sweet, as long as I can keep a 9000 redline.

it would be right at 2.3L I'd guess 40 to 60 more whp, judging by the '04's additional 40 whp

0.060 overbore would bring me to 88.524mm bore... i dont dare go any larger without sleeving it btw, that'd only be 2068cc

yes, i plan on going up to 10k. my top end can take it, so why not? all i need are new valve guides and stronger-stem valves



as for pistons, ive been researching for awhile and not many of the top names will make me a custom set of pistons. but ya, the weisco swirlies... weisco also offered me a set with offset wristpins!!! dont think i have enough torque to need those, though

I would agree.

If you're doing block work why not sleeve it and run 90mm? that would be damn sweet!

maybe... i'll have to talk to the machine shop and see what they think. i may be able to overbore to 90mm without resleeving...

but you're right, if i'm gonna rebuild the bottom end, i should do it right the first time, eh?
