Re: How far can I bore a 3K out to? Sun, 15 December 2002 01:05 Go to previous messageGo to previous message
WITZL - It was a pure race engine, so you couldn't compare it to a road engine. It made about 135hp and ran to nearly 9,000rpm though. Pretty flat below about 5700rpm!

Clint, no, the side of the block. We used Datsun 180B conrod bolts and had to beat out four little bumps in the sump to stop them hitting the sides of the 3K block. With a longer stroke 4K crank, I reckon it'd have to hit the sides of the block, let alone the sump. Wink
I'd be pretty newvous about going more than 4mm oversize on the K blocks. I don't know of anyone that's done it, but there's probably a good reason for it.
The reason we used the 3K crank and 4mm oversize was because the rules require a 1300cc maximum engine. If you want 1400cc max, then I'd go for a 4K and go as far as you have to with the pistons to make that.
But as Purple Beasty wrote, perhaps a 5K block would be a better thing as they're a lot stronger and the bore is pretty right for starters.
