heres the fantasy build if it hasnt been done yet


z6 block
y8 head
d17 crank
pm7/p29 pistons
????got me on rods

is this possible or can it be pretty simple to build up

 

[SpoolinSol]

i don't think there is a difference between y8 and the z6 heads...

 

[93 red ls]

you''ll need to use 9 y8 head studs and one z6 for the y8 head and z6 block mini me set up i think? correct me if im wrong rep me if im not

z6 ftw it has better parts options!

but why stroke the motor so u make lots of usless high rpm horse power and no tourqe.

spend some money on some sleeve and big bore if u want a biger motor.

stroke = torque

destroke = high rpm power

i smell very poor r/s ratios unless you had a million mile tall block to work with.

to achieve the same r/s ratio as a d16 (which isn't great) you would need 144 mm rods
for r/s of a d15 (better than a d16) you would need 150mm rods and for ideal r/s ratio of 1.75 you would need 165.2 mm rods.

Now, these rods exist with proper journal sizes for the d17 (I kid you not) *hint hint* nascar

but...with a deck height of 212 mm how are you going to fit 165mm rods on top of a 94.4 mm stroke?

lol... and there lies the mystery.... i say.... about 36 z6 headgaskets

 

[Gonzo]

the Z6 combustion chamber is slighlty larger than the y8. so if ur going for a tad compression go for the y8

just wanted to hear everyones opinion on this. it would be different. also do you think there is a way to bump displacement up in the d16 to 1.8L safely?
