well to what displacement?

A 2.0l is a 4g63 crank and block
A 2.1l is a 4g63 crank and a 4g64 block
A 2.3l is a 4g64 crank and a 4g63 block
A 2.4l is a 4g64 crank and block

2.3l

You'll need:

1. 4G64 Crank
2. Stroker Piston and Rod Combo (I have the Manley/Wiseco Combo at .040 and 8.8:1)
3. Main and Rod Bearings

A number of places sell these including FFWD, SBR, Jackson Auto Machine, etc. The 4G64 crank will need to be clearanced on your block. Other than that, any competent machine shop can do the bore, hot tank and align hone work. Also make sure they balance the assembly.

Keep in mind that a higher compression stroker will require some changes to timing and A/F ratios. It will also make equivalent power on less boost. A key item to is to make sure you have a clutch strong enough to hold the extra torque.

Hope that helps,

Andy

While Andy is correct, let me add in a few details.

1. The crankshaft. To make a 2.0 4G63 into a 2.3L you need to use a 2.4L crankshaft. Depending on whether you'r building a 6 or 7 bolt you'll need the proper crank. There is a 6 and 7 bolt version of the 4G64 crank, but also a G4CS and G54B crank is availble to use for the 6 bolt. Just for refference a 2.0L crank is 88mm and a 2.4L crank is 100mm.

2. Stroker pistons. You must use aftermarket pistons designed for use in a 2.3L setup. You can not use 2.0L pistons or 2.4L pistons. The stroker pistons are shorter in height than the stock pistons to make up for the added stroke of the crank. Companies such as Wiseco, Ross, and others make stroker pistons.

3. Rods. The rod length in a stroker setup is actually the exact same as a 2.0L setup. In all actuallity, you can use stock rods if you are building a budget stroker build, but aftermarket rods can be much stronger.

Hope this helps, Dan.

I want to use a 6 bolt engine so does the g4cs and g54b crank need to be machined to fit to and the stock size rods will bolt up to eather crank even the 4g64 with out any mods.......how good is a 2.3l and how much horse can it handle?

You're fwd and stroked motors aren't fwd friendly. But if you have your heart on stroking it out anyway look into getting a good lsd, motor mounts to prevent wheel hop, and an anti-lift kit.

im putting it in a 2g awd

I disagree. I have a fwd stroker and its simply a beast on the street at a minimal 15psi. I have a full LSD in the car also and its definetly needed with the added torque. Even with the LSD 2nd gear is ripped throughout and 3rd gear when the ground is wet. But the lowend torque is amazing. I love it so much. I get full spool (20psi) on my 50 trim by about 3500.

How well do you hook up and pull when really getting on it? When I spun a rod bearing I looked into getting a 2.3l kit but I was steared away from the idea being told that "the torque would be to much and cause the car to be only good for burout competitions." I'm a torque junky and love the idea of being able to hang with the awd DSM's out the hole.

I cant speak for fwd cars but I definately had to change the way I launched my awd to prevent wheel spin. I imagine that it would be much worst in fwd, unless you have LSD and some radials.
