Stroker engine Gen. II - build input wanted

[GTSjbud]

I am considering stroking the engine in my '96 Venom 550 Hennessey car and would like some advice with regards to the displacement.

Here are my thoughts:

Bore - .030 over
Stroke - ??

What is a safe cubic inch displacement for a twin turbo car? What rod length is required?

Thanks in advace for input!!

how much power are you trying to make?

 

[Disturbed]

You really don't need to do a stroker to get 1,000rwhp out of a viper. You can if you want. A Set of Styker Race heads ported by Greg Good will give you more power than the small amount of cid you get from a stroker crank.


Rod size depends on how big you go.

There's not much room in the cylinder sleeves to do any boring.

Well with CPE twin turbos and Greg Good heads plus a proper cam shaft and bottom end build I am thinking anywhere from 1000 - 1400rwhp depending on boost and fuel used.

The max bore from what I understand is 30 over.

With a good solid roller cam and dry-sump, rev that thing to 7000-7500rpm and put all the stroker motors to shame. I bet it would be cheaper than a custome crank too. Talk to Greg about it.


Next time you talk to Greg Good, tell him "HIS" red 01 ACR is going to run 10's soon.

If you're going for over 1,000 rhwp make sure you change the main bearings too.

Hmmmm sounds very interesting. I will definitely be speaking with Greg about my build. He will be advising me on head work and cam for the twin turbo setup.

Oh, and I definitely don't want to purchase a custom crank...$5000

I'll definitely tell him that "HIS" Viper will be running 10's.

You bet!! New bearings, rods, pistons, lifters, cam, etc. etc. I have also been advised to coat the pistons and bearings as this is a very cheap method to get more power and increase wear, etc.

If your going to do coatings, do the heads(intake and exhaust ports) and valves too! This is starting to sound like the build up I'm planning on....you bastered I hate you....naaaa...I don't hate you, I just can't wait to start mine!

I wish I would have talked to Greg more before I did the cam that I did, if I would have only known better. I'd be making well over 650rwhp N/A and not 565rwhp+

I can't beleive you wrote that!!

I will absolutely be replacing the main bearing caps. Who sells them? This is one of the only things I have not found a supplier for.

Are you going to put a SRT10 crankshaft in it ?

Hey Disturbed...is this question directed to JD?

 

[GTSjbud]

I honestly never thought of it...what is the advantage/disadvantage??
