Stroker Crank Question?

Hello again from the Nordic Empress!!


I was wondering what is the maximum stroke for an aftermarket cam that is available which doesnt need any machining to the stock 1600 case?!?!


Thanks for the info!!

Clint

Not sure if I am reading the question right, but for no case clearancing a 76mm stroker is the biggest you can go before having to trim the case... Granted you still might need clearanced rods for this setup.

CB's got some nice CroMo I beam rods, with bolt bosses trimmed for a stroker crank. Set of four sells for around $100.00 We got a set for Hummbug and I was impressed with the quality and light weight. Especially for the price.

P.S.
These rods are for a T1, not a T4.
