99mm custom crank, from a major shop, and 86mm bore it is possable, now what kind of torque do you think it can make, i guess 180, but who know It would be a great race engine, with that long of stroke might suck on the street, last not that long, i wonder who will be the first to do it, unless some of those low 11 sec honda's have already(ie TODA) just kidding, but tell me what you guys think

 

and a 7k redline hopefully. those are the new specs of the new crv too...thats a really long stroke to rev on.

 

They have been using 87mm x 94mm setups here in Japan for a couple years. The engine has a very short life span ...

 

That motor would have to be rebuilt once a year I would think.

But 170-180tq at the wheels is definitely possible with 13:1+ compression.

 

A cheaper route is to use a 95mm crank from the first gen Preludes in a B18 block sleeved to 86mm. You get 2207cc

 

hey that's interesting! How much power potential does that setup have?

 

Well I dont know really...but Id imagine in the 165+ ft-lbs to the wheels.

EDIT: Actually with high compression pistons...like 12:1...you'd probably see more around 175+ ft-lbs to the wheels.

The first gen Prelude crank was thouroughly investigated by me.

It was determined that it would be a neat motor, however, have a short life span, i.e. Spoon 2.0l.

 

Yea I dont doubt that.
It would make a nice track motor...riven on weekends only kind of thing.
