I'm getting excited just watching your progress.

I did find some longer rods for your next build ... Lol

I'm thinking a 3.6 liter monster hybrid
raising the deck height? pushing the limits for bores? you can get the liners pretty close on a siamesed engine...like this northstar

108 mm bore (been done) and 97mm stroke (welded). I'm not positive on the stroke but I think it can be done.

Do not tempt me, LOL. Even 106 mm bore with my crank and a 16V head would be amazing. Pan is already installed . I sent you an email with some data.

Why would the cam cause it to be non interference? I would think that would be determined on how the pistons are shaped vs. A cam choice.

More lift on the cam, means the valves protrude into the combustion-chamber farther, necessitating deeper reliefs into the pistons...

Yep, my next trial will add .080 to whatever cam I choose. Either NA or turbo. I could fly cut the pistons I suppose, but using a drop in piston always sounds better IMO.

How much stroke can you get before you pull the pistons out of the bottom of the cylinder?

how much of the crank girdle can be machined out?

My pistons already have part of the skirt lower than the cylinder. It would need to be quite a bit more stroke to be of concern. Plus the pistons we are using have a shorter skirt.

With the rods we are using its not necessary

That's due to the head bolts using too fine a thread which pulls out of the block. Putting coarser studs in fixes it. Boost isn't an issue then.

he said .08 clearance; with added stroke the rods would go out a bit.

Sorry I meant the rods that I would be using. The have offset bolts. Even so, I believe that I could fit the current rods with minimal clearance work.

There are some other things about to happen that havnt been shared yet. Sometimes I get ahead of myself.
