whats the best bore stroke ratio out of the diffrent strokers? like 2332,2275,2165, which is better for power if they was build with all the same stuff? 2332? just curious..wondering if bigger is better in the vw world

no replacement for displacement. bigger is better 99.973% of the time

2332, 94 x 84, FK8, 1:4s, decent heads and about 10:1 would do..........

82 mm stroke use stock 5.34" length or 5.4 rods, 84 and 86 mm stroke use 5.5 rods. An FK 8 style cam very quick accelerating cam. Use the next size down cam for a little more aggressive bottom end. You can use smaller 40 x 35.5 valved heads for the 2180 but they will need to be welded and ported for best results. Bigger is better, these days a 88x 94 is pretty easy to assemble if you start with the right stuff. An Autolinea case is availiable premachined for 88x94 for around $680. A stroker 82-88 mm DPR crank is $340 to $400 and a Demellos full race 88 mm crank is $700. CB race rods with ARP 2000 bolts are $250. A Web Cam 86a (260 duration .507" lift) clearanced for a stroker cam and lifters are around $220. Steve Tims Stage 2 heads around $800 with intakes. CB has a nice dry sump oil pump for $110, they also have a inexpensive dry sump tank. AJ Sims 1.4 rockers $135. There are many more parts to buy but $4500-$5000 should cover purchasing all new parts including guages and an A/F ratio meter.

Yep, if you wanna sit on the porch.
But if you wanna run with the big dogs better go with a 1461 w/ drilled valves.

hey davis u dont like the w-125 cam with 1.25 rocker arms? how does that compare to the fk 8?? thanks for all the replies..i already have the 1.25s thats y im asking
