Stroked r16 w 1500 crank?
Anyone ever used a 1500 crank in a 1600? I was just wondering what the 3 bolt main guys are doing....seems to me I recall that the 3 bolt bottom end is still pretty darn tough and there's more oil to go around. Just a thought. Thoughts, ideas?

It has been done and you end up with about an 1800cc stroker. The issue is that the 1500 cranks and rods are getting hard to find...

RE:stroked r16 vs 1500
Original Post "As well as the main and rod bearings too!" I stand corrected as the 5 main bearings will work in a three main motor.
