Hey, sorry the details on all this are still coming together... I'm still about a month or so away, so here's hoping!

the target compression ratio is about 11.5:1

my figure on the displacement was an estimate, but the crank takes the stroke out to 88mm or so.

re: to fit the M47 crank --needs to be shortened by about .5mm, and a woodruff was cut for the timing gear (in the pic)

sure, reason i asked was because to get 2130cc with your crank you'd need pistons that would leave very little meat indeed between bores. did you have a regrind on the crank too? the tolerences on mine weren't very good, be intrigued to see how yours is as mine had done very few miles.
what crank bolt did you use btw?

Compression.
« Reply #39 on: April 14, 2006, 09:53:46 PM »
I think diesels have like 20:1 compression. That should be bullet proof @11.5:1. I gather the increase in displacement is coming from the stroke. Just curious what the bore and stroke are for a stock 318 and for the build you are doing.

Just FYI - I called eurodepot a few days ago. They can get a M47 crank for about $800. Is this the amount we are expecting it will cost?

nothing much yet... the head is out being worked, and once that's done, I guess it will be torqued on without the crank in place, and then the cylinders and block will be checked for any signs of warping etc. Thats kind of the last major hurdle for the bottom end.

they had to go to a slightly shorter, lighter I-beam rod instead of the h-beam to get the compression ration down a little... with the h-beam rods, the CR was coming out to around 12.8, which the engine builder wasn't comfortable with; he's kind of using his S50-related experience to figure it out.

On my end, I've been gathering up all the other various parts... stuff that I can deal with when the motor is out...  the starter, power steering pump, belts, plug wires, coils, etc. My coolant and vacuum lines are pretty new and I did the alternator in january...

I'll try to post some more pics shortly...
