anyone done this one

Rod length ??

the block is sleeved .@ 84mm
definetly will have a fugly rod ratio ...

 

Bump

 

are you asking what is involved in doing this or what the outcome will be if it's done ?

 

an answer for both would be great

 

well for one, what year GSR crank are you asking about 92-932 GSR/1.7L or 94-00 GSR/1.8L?

the 1.7L crank will drop right into a B16A block, but you'll need B17A rods as well in order for all to work like butta.

the 1.8L crank on the otherhand, is not a drop-in-and-go application. Machining needs to be done since the P72 crank's journal's are a smaller width than a B16A & B17A's crank+rod journals.....and not to mention, you'd tottally need custom rods & possibly pistons to make it all work (some aftermarket rods don't accept an OEM piston, or do but need mod'ing). The $$$ adds up and quite frankly is not worth doing IMO. And yes, the rod ratio would suck major kitty litter.

 

how about the 94-00 gsr crank ??

thanks for the valuable info

 

The reason im asking is cause i been sitting on this b-16 block for a while ..
to givve you an idea how long
it was one of the first to receive Sleeves @ 84mm from Dan Benson a lonnnggg time ago
i dont want to let it go to waste like my Revhard hard custom. turbo kit sitting around collecting dust
