i'm planning to build my h22a1 block. i need some suggestions. i want to go all motor. planning bore size 89mm,100mm stroke, with 12.0:1 compression ratio.

my first option is sending the core to exospeed and have them rebuilt it for $4300(stage 4 max).

second option is send it to pocketrocket for $4895(na block package).

third option is buy darton mid sleeves ($625) with na stroker kit from pocketrocket ($3478) and have a local machine shop install it($?).

fourth option is send it to pocketrocket, exospeed, or goldeneaglemfg for sleeving services (about $850, exospeed)and buy darton sleeves($625) and the stroker kit($3478) from pocketrocket or buy pistons, rods, crank separately($?) for local installations($?).

which one do you guys thank is best? or a combination? i'm trying to have a balance between price and quality.

 

wouldnt 100mm of stroke require either a deck plate or offset boring cuz thats a shitload of stroke.

i believe you would also need to get the block notched so the rods have room to travel.

i'd go with Frank (pocketrockets) on this one.

 

pocket rocket says it's possible. but they're about $500 more than exospeed. does anyone know how long they usually take for this kind of build?

anyone else?

 

of course it can be done but making a block run 100mm of stroke is no task i would let someone who hasnt done it before, do it.
