Have any of you heard or experinced with boring out a 2.2 to a 2.5? Also who makes pistons this size besides JE? Thanks

 

i'm thinking R&D makes a 2.2 that they have stroked to a 2.6, you'd have to do quite a bit of boring to get it that high. although for the street setup i'm thinking R&D suggests no larger than 2.4, that kit includes crankshaft, rods, and pistons i'm thinking.

 

you do quite a lot of thinking now dont you?

 

hahaha.. I went to a 2.4. That's about as big as you want on a street application. 2.5 (90mm bore) is WAY thin on the cylinder walls. Actually, you don't ahve cylinder walls between the pistons, you ahve to notch the sleeve to get them to all fit against eachother.

 

well, let me rephrase that. I went from 87mm (2.157l) to 89mm (2.35xl)
And Arias will make you some pistons.

 

how much did it cost to get your engine work done?

 

Nice setup JG luder, I was thinking of punching a 1.8 to a 2.0? But then i started thinking of doing it to a 2.3. This would be going into a Civic coupe. What kinda of #'s are you putting down? Thanks for the info.

 

yeahi read the article the day before i read this post, so i was trying to remember exactly what i read.
