I wanted to know if a 4g64 crank will work in a 4g63 block. I have heard that you can use this crank to make a stroker out of the 4g63t:dsm:
 
That's new to me. I've heard of using a 4G64 block with a 4G63 head for a stroker, but not just the crank. I'm interested to hear the answer to this.

Yah its kinda a weard question to ask because I know about using the 4g64 bottom end and using the 4g63 head, but some body was telling me to just use the crank, I just didn't sound right to me so I just wanted to see what anybody elts had to say about it.:dsm:

Yes, a 4G64 2.4L crank will work in a 4G63 2.0L block. As long as they are both 6 bolt or both 7 bolt it will work. You will need stroker pistons which are shorter, as well as some block clearancing for the bigger crank. A 4G64 "bottom end" would mean using a 4G64 block AND crank which would result in a full 2.4L displacement.

Using a 2.0L 4G63 crank in a 2.4L 4G64 block will give you 2.1L and a great rod ratio (read: high revving).

And lastly, using the search button will give you all the answers to your questions. :dsm:
 
What elts would I need if I just use the crank?:dsm:
What kind of pistons do you think I should use.
What kind of rods?:dsm:
 
You use the 64 crank standard 2.0L rods with Special pistons, They are just shorter. Use the search button because there is also some places you need to take down in the block and main caps so you dont have contact.
 
Using a 100mm stroke 4G64 crankshaft in a 4G63 block will work. It is commonly referred to as a 2.3L stroker although the displacement can be almost 2.4L with larger than stock bore.

As previously stated, use a six bolt crank in a six bolt block and seven bolt crank in seven bolt block. The 2.3L requires special "stroker" pistons with the pin moved up from the stock position. See the thread at http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/str...acement-various-combinations-bore-stroke.html for a table of displacements for different piston sizes and crank stroke.

The stroker modification changes the nature of the 4G63 and affects cam choice and RPM limit. There is much to learn. The 2.3L stroker has many threads on this site and for more (much more) detail please read through http://www.kidzuku.com/StrokeOrNot.pdf.

Ahh.. Good read! I'm glad you posted that, i havn't seen it before and it was quite interesting. I like the summed up version at the end the best..

Or, if the equations and charts are just too much information the three-step analysis used
by the author might be simpler.

1. Hmmm torque good.
2. Me stroke Talon.
3. Make tires happy.

Happy tuning.

^^ Thats good enough for me!
 
Thanks,
Math should support the real world, or at least change our understanding of it.

For what's it worth I stroked my Talon on that short summary and only later did all of the math and charts to show why my tires are happy.
