Are you thinking stroker motor?

Re: D17 crankshaft

I was told there is an issue with the rods, as they must be D17 because of the journals.. still looking for trustworthy information regarding this

Yea I feel you. But the thing with that is; 1) It wont really give you to much power. 2) The r/s ratio goes to ----. 3) The money spent could go in to making a HMT kit and make a hole lot more power. 4) People have done them and they don't last to long. 5) I just saw your post in d-series, just do a cheap boost setup you will be much happier.

Re: D17 crankshaft

cool.. advice taken

I'm in the process of rebuilding my Y8 so I figured the stroke would make for a nice low-end torquey motor.
I'll just stick with the oem crank though, thanks..
