Ladysmith,
Hey, posted this in extreme tech...but it seems not to many people go there, and i want to discuss this, so i moved it here.
Ok, so i've been dead set on doing a 2.4 using the 4gcs...but i'm on a budget to get it started...and the wicked deal i found sold on me...so i need some info on how to calcutale the amount of boring needed to put the 4gcs crank in the 4g63, and then bore the cylindes to make up the extra .1 L....also what is the formula for rod/stroke ratio, would it be better then the standard 2.3 stroker ratio of 1.5? or is piston size not a factor in the ratio.
I beleive the cylinder size must increase from the stock 85mm to 87mm... or so it says here.

But i don't know how to convert that to 0.xx" over ..but my calcutaions get .07874" over...
which is 2.376 L ??
These are all formulas i made up in my head...so i need somoene to post some good formulas for engine specs...or link...cuz it would be very useful for me at this descision point.
Ok I figured out the rod/stroke ratio formula....so 1.5 is all we can get out of it...i thought that cylinder diameter would play a factor...but no...so the most we could do is throw in a long rod option, (156mm rod) and get a 1.56 ratio...but really how bad is that? ...like i know 1.7 is ideal..and thats what our beloved 4G63 has....but im on a quest for torque and
fp3065 spoolage and 5-600 hp....so would i get decent cylinder filling at bdc and not too bad of cylinder wall wear with 1.56?
Also is 156mm the max we can do?...how about a 160mm rod...could that work without disturbing comfortable ring placement on the piston?...
I realize that .080 over is pushin it...so i'm guessing most of you are going to say no way....but how bad would .060 over be for reliabilty on a street monster.
Thanks guys
Wayne
