quick stroker question

[14.5 drift]

Can some body explain/provide a link that explains the differences mechanically, between the 2.3 stroker and the 2.4? The reasons why you would use one over the other, price diffeerences, reliability, advantages/disadvantages, and this types of things. Thanks alot,




Chris.

first of all, this info is found all over any dsm related forum, including this one.

The difference is a 2.4 has a 6mm taller deckheight.

A 2.3 is just a 2.0 block using a 2.4 crank, but it requires that the wrist pin be moved by 6mm, otherwise the piston would poke out of the block and smack into the head/valves.

Here is a couple of links. I thought I had one that really spec’d out the Galent and what years they came with DOHC. I do know it was in ’94. I think it would bolt up to our cars, but not sure. So good luck.
