Default Crower Stroker Kit

Anybody have a stroker kit to make a 1.6 to a 2.0? Just wonderin how you liked it/how much torque/hp you got out of it. Just curious, thanks.

it'd be hard to get a 1.6 bored and stroked to 2.0...


1.9 i've seen from eagle with new cranks....

some guy on h-t.com got his bored out to 2.0+ liters but he had to have a deck plate.

1.9 at the most.

but it's not too common of a mod. so i dunno how much of a response you'll get.

pac motorsports in Denver builds a 1870cc B16 stroker that makes upwards of 220 hp and 155 ft lbs.... Theyre also good guys to do business with. For the kind of money you'd spend on a good stroker kit, you could probably do a number of things that would yield more power.

And stroking your motor will shorten it's life, right? By de-emphasizing the rod/stroke ratio? Especially at the high-revs honda motors live at...

A cheap stroker kit is the B17 roating assemblies in a B16

Yeah, basically. Although a longer stroke will generally improve torque, motors with a stroke-heavy bore:stroke ratio can't withstand high engine speeds as well as a short stroke:wide bore. Theres just too much to move, piston speeds get way up there, and stuff wears faster.

its useless to stroke a motor without building it, IMO. The reason the Pac motorsports b16 stroker makes so much power is its a thoughtfully planned out and built package--the whole motor. To think you could just buy a stroker kit and have serious gains with no longevity/reliability problems is I just think money can be beter spent other ways.

1.) Why go spoon?
2.) I don't even think this kit is available anymore.
