Is that the bore and stroke (88x96.9)? You state a small motor...(2357cc if I did the calculation right?) Looks great. Tell Roger we said "howzit"

Thanks 2stroke...how did I screw up that calculation...doh! "Small motor", oouch! I was just wondering if it was a true old school 88 bore (you know, "those" old school ones) with some magic crank Roger had buried in a crate under the Flowbench. Best of luck with that combo. C.O.R.

Hey Dom, this is Frank...da older brother in Hilo. Gino is trying to get up for Sacto in May. He's busy with Pono-boy..you know the drill. He said he'd give you a call; and since there isn't a track for him in Honolulu, to "burn rubba" for him. Talk to you soon, Frank and Gino

I bet you got the bore and crank size crossed up!

It's a 88 slipper skirt, one bad ass engine. It's an old class motor.

Bad Bug Two, that's what I originally thought (88 crank with the Porsche race 96.9 pistons) but evidently by TBK's post, I got it right with the slipper skirts...go figga. Dom OR Turbonator, AA or EMPI slippers (If you are OK to say, sorry in advance for the question)? Who's or what crank is that? That is a huge stroke, but it is a Scat case....damn. Turbonator, that is bad a$$ ride! F

What size crank?  I'm thinking not 96.9, but anything is possible.

Well, there it is...I'm wrong. Sorry gang! Wishful thinking that it'd be an old school 88 P&C set with some new age monster crank. You nailed it Bad Bug...Turbonator, which brand piston? F
