If you're still looking for a stroker shortblock, you can have my old one for free. It does need new rings at a minimum, and new pistons wouldn't hurt.

I've been driving my 2.3 build around a bit, pretty fun even at 15psi.

I'll try and drop by.

The 2.3 motor fired up for the first time last night since the fire. Single turbo this time

Haha, it's just a pet peeve, don't mind me.

Torque torque torque . . . means nothing.

For drag racing, it all comes down to HP, the right gearing, and traction.

Sorry for you and your family's loss Marcus.

For some reason I can't PM you, but I have a couple left.

HRP has them:

Teal car is looong gone, there was nothing left at all of that things body.

Engine and trans from it are going into this car at some point, but it has a single 4088R turbo instead of the twin 16's. Right now I'm welding up the downpipe for it and sourcing all the little bits and pieces.

Right now it has Megan Coilovers, the wheels and tires, poly bushings all around, and a 100% stock drivetrain down to the exhaust and the restrictor in the BCS.

Me too, They're actually Rota wheels, 17x10's with 275 Toyo R888's.

More to come later.

Yeah, motorcycles on a road course.

Going to a 2-day motorcycle track day instead. Have fun guys.

Since you kept the boost the same, you made more power with the stroker, and needed more fuel. You didn't have enough injector to max out the 2.0 either

Once you're talking turbocharged cars, displacement has zero effect on the total fuel required. The compressor housing/wheel will choke out at exactly the same power level no matter if its a 1.5 or a 5.7. A 2.0 maxing out a 16g requires exactly the same amount of fuel as a 2.4 does.

On my heavily cammed 2.3, a single Evo III turbo would drop to about 16-17 psi by 8k rpm. It would probably hold 20psi with stock cams.

660's should be enough fuel, but they won't leave you with much breathing room.

Best in the Buick is 1.60, bone stock suspension and Hoosier slicks.

I bought a set of the Megans as well, for $900 they're hard to pass up. The Megans are identical to the low-end Apexi coilovers BTW.

No, I have the plain 'Duraglide' bearings, which are a slightly softer tri-metal bearing.

I have ACLs in my 2.3, no problems thus far.

Then again, it only has a thousand miles on it or so.

I've got a set of the 2-piston 'big' brakes on my car right now that I'll be looking to sell once I rebuild my VR4 TT calipers.

Evo 9 was stuck in traffic.

I think the Evo's actually need a box, the DSM's are fine without them.

I found this on Tuners and figured the other tech-heads might find it interesting, as it covers the hard numbers of stock, stroking, and destroking:

Is it a 1G 7-bolt head? They have smaller bolt holes.
