its a 4g63 probably a 6 bolt and its spelled sure

[hawaiian1289]

It is a 4g63 num nuts

this is just badass, thats all.

@coalandnuclear at 2000RPM so i don't know if you get what im saying lol but having higher compression will sort of drop your RPM range but not to much.

[ThourRacer]

@coalandnuclear correct, actually, the CAT C15 twin turbo has an 18.1 compression ration come to think of it. and the longer strokes will tame your RPM but you can still have a alot of range compred to a diesel like the 383 stroker on a strip shifts over 7000rpm but gain most torque aroun 4500 rpm. mainly you still have to have a higher RPM on a gasser to get your torque compared to a diesel where you have max torque at like 2000RPM or lower sometimes. the c15 has around 2085ft.lb of torque

[coalandnuclear]

@ThourRacer i mainly thought a diesel had so much torgue simply because of its compression, dont they have like 18;1 or higher compression as opposed to this gsx witch stock is only like 7.5:1. and morely a long stroke engine is gonna have lower rpm' since it has to move more per stroke.

[ThourRacer]

@coalandnuclear that why you have all the RPMs on a gaser not a diesel and thats why a diesel has alot more torque is roulghly again i will say a vary simple explenation is the longer the stroke the more torque and the shorter the stroke more hp, but you are correct to a certin point about the more compression but coalandnuclear is semi correct about the pistons could lower the compression but not always. hope that helps abit if you want to know more i can tell you just send me a message.

[ThourRacer]

@coalandnuclear if the stroke gets longer, it's builds more twisting force ( torque). a very unexplained and not fully correct but im a diesel mechanic and roughly, the shorted the stroke the faster the pistons move the more combustion you have the more horsepower you have in away like i said not explained and fully correct but, in a diesel it could have 452hp and 2100ft-lbs of torque( Cat C-15 TT) thats becasue a diesel has alot long stroke then a gaser

[coalandnuclear]

@Dasithkg thanks, im not building an engine i just thought it was logical

[Dasithkg]

@coalandnuclear compression would get high... making a stroker just doesnt stop at making its capacity bigger. you need stroker pistons too... and more than likely it would also get more aggressive camshafts too.... so the custom pistons could and would lower the compression and also the camshaft lift and degree will also lower the dynamic compression... so its actually up to whoever builds it to decide what they want from the engine

[coalandnuclear]

@Dasithkg might be a dumb question, if the stroke gets longer does the compression get higher. wouldnt it be compressing the air more.

@Dasithkg why be a dumb question if the stroke gets longer does the compression get higher. wouldnt it be compressing the air more.
