Hi,
I tried to read the whole articles of it, but i'm not to good in english, so there is one thing i don't understand.
Especially the connecting rods, and pistons. Can i use the old ones, or i have to use different (couse the longer stroke).
Thanx
Connecting rods: Yes, used is good. Actually really good. They are forged units and nice.
Pistons: NO. You need new ones to make up the difference in stroke.
Total deckheight (center of the crank to the block top): ≈227.5 mm
Connecting rod length (center to center): 143.75 mm
Buick 300 stroke: 86.36 mm/2 = 43.18 mm
143.75 + 43.18 = 186.93
≈227.5 - 186.93 ≈ 40.5 mm
That is the piston height you need. ≈ 40.5 mm (1.59 in.) compression height for the piston.
Thanx!
By the way, the piston with this compression height must be custom, or i can use different one, specially low compression Range Rover?
Sorry, i have already understand. I found the possible pistons at D&D Fabrications.
