Just saw one on Racingjunk that was a great deal and DaveW has his for sale on Ebay it is at $5,900 right now. Both of these engines had the Bellhousing with them.

If you consider putting a 3.75 crank in it you divide that by 2. That would be 1.875. Now take that from 8.8". That leaves 6.925". So that would allow a 6" rod with a 1.075" compression height piston. Huh? I get a compression height of .925. Stroke/2+rod lenght-deck height so you have 3.75/2+6.00-8.8=.925 and thats a short piston. Brett Miller W9 cnc'd heads STR Chassis fabraction

My family and I are looking forward to the move. Once we get settled in, my goal is to get to work on the XR2/P7 engine. 7689334-XR21.jpg (38 downloads) Last edited by Dave W; 04/30/13 11:09 PM.
