So many options out there.

Here's the proposed setup:

Winberg 94mm crankshaft
Pistons: Wiseco HD2 stroker piston 10.5:1
Manley 300m i-beam - 150mm rod length
85.5 bore(.20 over)


The question is, the HD2 pistons are listed as a "stroker" piston which has the wrist pin moved up. The question is, are the pistons for a 2.2 different than the 2.3? Will the 2.3 pistons work?

Not with 150mm rods.

Good speaking with you guys on the phone yesterday. Essentially narrowed it down to 3 options due to time constraints

Option 1 Custom Rods: 94mm crank, R&R 153mm rods, Wiseco HD2 stroker piston(made for the 2.3)

Option 2 2.2L Regular: 94mm crank, Manley 300m or TurboTuff Rods - 150mm/ Manley or cp 2.2 Pistons

Option 3 2.2 Long Rod: 94mm crank, Manley Rods 156mm, CP or Manley Pistons

Decisions Decisions Decisions. One thing I do know is the guys at english racing know their stuff

I'm guessing you would have to use 153mm rods with a 94mm crank and stroker pistons because stroker pistons are made with the wrist pins moved up 6mm.

Likewise I will run all 3 motors we talked about in my engine sim software and compare vs restrictor motors I have done. By the by, we lose 25-30% going from gas to E85 on the road course and still manage 3mpg stage mileage.
