What does every bore like ??? For a woods buggy 2seater thinking about a 74mm stroke and 94's. I'm planning on building a motor and what cases to use ??? THANKS

If you are starting from scratch and want to build a stroker the cranks all pretty much cost the same. A 2276cc is a great combo and will be less work in the long run to get setup if you run a 5.400" rod and use stroker pistons. A good stock case will be fine for a build like this.

As for cases, there has been some controversy but I like my Magnesium case from CB performance. Some say they are not strong (when hit with a hammer).. However, I have found they do not get as hot and they do not expand as much with they get hot.

Another personal opinion.. You get what you pay for.. I stronger advise against buying EMPI kits..

So do you guys like more bore or stroke I would like to go to a 2.??? What is a good stroke to go with?

BOTH ! The cost of cranks are pretty much all the same when you start talking longer strokes.

X2 and get the Mahle piston

GOOD LUCK finding Mahle " B " stroker pistons, unless your gonna run 92's !

You can get them just plan on spending $500 or more for a set but dont use AA's there junk!!!!

mahles are out there, but they are HARD to find,...not to jack the thread, but thoughts on wiesco pistons?? i ordered a set and sent them back when i found the mahles. they where a lil over $500 to the door, jus no one that i know runs them..jus lookin for alternatives when the time comes for a new motor

Iv heard good thinds about weisco's they seem to be pretty good so far. But like in my previous post AA's are junk.

TRY Drews off road . Brain had mahla 94 strokers two weeks ago.

Read the article in the latest Hot VW's magazine about running Toyota V-6 pistons in a VW engine. Sounds WAY promising as an alternative.

I read that also, the only down fall I saw to it was the limited RPM...only about 6500 according to them

I agree the 2276 will b by far the easiest to build. Use a stock dual relief case. As far as the AA pistons I can't say there junk but I have broke 2 of them. 1 in a 1915 13:1 comp. 40* timing cranking it 7000rpm dirt track racing and the other in a 2276 (blower motor) 12:1 comp with 10# of boost it split 3 cyl and busted 1 piston They did live at 10:1 with 10# of boost. Detonation was the killer of both pistons.

Go with the 82 stroke if you got B Stroker pistons. If you don't got Stroker pistons use a 76 stroke crank and shim the cyls. I would set compression at no less then 9.5:1 on pump gas. E85 or race gas 12:1

not to hijack but you can have that E gas shit from my experience, a buddy bought some E110 to put in his so we drained the 93 and put in that E crap and the more he ran it the worse it got and idle jets started getting plugged up, so we drained the E and put regular 110 in and you could hear the difference in it running as the E fuel left in the carb bowls burnt out was replaced with the reg 110

E85 requires about 30% bigger main jet And the flow must be increased though out the fuel curve. So a carb tuned for 93 won't run E85 at all. E85 is 85% Ethanol and 15%Reguler 87 octane gas.

what he had was E110 but the "regular" 110 ran fine
