Hey guys I'm wondering if anyone can tell me if it is possible for me to run a 4g64 7 bolt crank in my 4g63 with my used 2.3l pistons and rod that I had for my 2.3l eagle crank that I sold, I am trying to make some use of these parts but do not want to purchase a whole new eagle crank as they are pretty expensive so any help would be appreciated thanks.
 
yes you can run a 100mm stock 4g64 crank in a 4g63 for the 2.3L but its not forged (not as strong as the eagle). Check the rod and piston specs to the ones below to be sure.

This page has all the info you need for stroker + other builds. Scroll down to 2.3L stroker. this is the important stuff:
Standard Specs:
Stroke: 100mm
Factory Bore: 85mm
Rod Length: 150mm
Wrist Pin Height: 1.130"
Displacement: 2269cc or 2.3L
Rod/Stroke Ratio: 1.50
Piston Speed @ 1,000RPM: 10.93 FPS

The 4g64 crank and rods can be used, but the pistons can not unless they are have offset wrist pins. When increasing crank throw, you run into the issue of the piston hitting the cylinder head. That is why a piston with a relocated wrist pin is needed. All major piston manufactures make a stroker piston to be used in this type of build.

Good luck and happy building
 
ok this is what I found on my pistons, so can anyone tell me if it'll work. Also the guy who build the engine that came with the car when I got it used 3 scat rods and 1 eagle which I don't even know the spec to those rods

the stock bore for a 4g63 is 85mm, is your block bored over for the 85.75mm? and i also couldnt find anything on wrist pin height anywhere so youll have to check that first (needs to be 1.130"). and check that your rods are 150mm
