 Detailed 2.3L stroker technical info
Found this link at mitsustyle.com. Even if you're not interested in a stroker, its still great info on engines in general. I've only read about a 1/3rd of it so far and I've learned quite a bit. Check it out (it's a PDF, download it and open it): http://www.kidzuku.com/StrokeOrNot.pdf

That thing is a great read. Helped me understand more about engines in general. I thought I had given that file to you already Clint. Sorry I'm a dick for not sharing and thank you for being cooler than me and sharing it with everyone.

 Re: Detailed 2.3L stroker technical info
This may not have much to do about the subject. But doesn't John Sheperd run a 2.0 4G63. And last time i read his web-page he was making over 1000hp....Is a 2.3 stroker cabable or is running 2.0 better.? Cuz like i said, and even though you guys tell me not to do it, or may just not believe me, i am going to build a drag car. And i would like to know if i'd be better off with the stock 2.0 or the 2.3 stroker? DO you guys have any toughts on what will be better for drag.

 Re: Detailed 2.3L stroker technical info
In my opinion a 2.0 is a better drag engine since you can spin it to a higher RPM than a 2.3.
I'm hoping that my 2.3 will be real good for auto-cross and tight road courses as it should have better low end torque and spool faster.
