I cant comment on the discussion too much,
BUT!
I do know have a 12 port header plate in CAD format, so will be getting some cut in the near future to make more pipes.
Will confirm a price soon, but around $35-$40 should cover them? 12-14mm mild steel, laser cut.
Can also do 9 porters for about the same I think

I'll take one as soon as you have one.
12mm will do.
Cheers,Craig.

Remember this old chestnut? http://www.gmh-toran...ought-this-186/
Its finally coming out to play.

G'day Grant ,I 'll try to answer your concerns ,The torsional forces against the cylinder walls actually change with the rod to stroke ratio.(std 202 rod/stroke ratio is 1.61) If you build the old falcon crank 234 stroker with short holden rods the (rod/stroke ratio 1.45) greater rod angles place much more force on the cyl walls and the resulting quick piston acceleration from tdc does not work well with the restricted breathing.
The long rod stroker has a rod to stroke ratio of 1.68 which is better than a std 202 .The lesser rod angles actually place less stress and friction on the cylinder walls than a std stroke/rod 202 engine.Also the piston moves slower from tdc due to the longer rod meaning the intake valve is open further before the piston starts moving quickly down which helps with cylinder filling.Mick
IMHO - the change in forces on the cylinder walls is the least of concerns, I can't get over the .100"+ over bore mentioned earlier in the thread...
Also, just to clarify, we really are talking about (roughly) equal capacity gains for the crank and overbore aren't we?

Wow! I should start more threads!

put me down for a couple of 12 port plates for when it happens.
Cheers.

I use .035 ,.055 or .075 overbores without any problems in 186 or 202 blocks in n/a applications, I wouldnt use .120" overbore in my engine but some people do in speedway applications without problems.the trick is to sonic test the wall thickness to verify a good casting before deciding bore size.capacity increases roughly 9ci from stroke increase and 7ci from the bore increase,it costs roughly the same to grind the crank to either stroke.IMHO - the change in forces on the cylinder walls is the least of concerns, I can't get over the .100"+ over bore mentioned earlier in the thread...

Hi Mick,
Agree regarding the importance of sonic testing (for high HP applications). What wall thickness do you like to see (after overbore) on the 202?
Cheers.

So this will suit the new alloy YT 12 port head? What would be the estimated postage to Melbourne?

Probably no less than .120" for n/a enginesHi Mick,

Once I figure out how many I need to get cut, I'll flick you a final price.
Postage should work out at $10 per person, (express post satchels)
Also, if anyone wants some TD04L turbo flanges (WRX turbos) inlet or exhaust, let me know (getting some of those done for myself too!)
