Nick didn't say anything about stroker kits. He modifies the crank to run a different type of bearing.

Offset grind it?
I was gonna do that to my forged 4" crank, but I decided I didn't need any more torque.

No one said he stroked one???? He has just been building them and offering parts. I do believe his first motor was a long rod setup, but not a stroked? Where did you get that from?
edit: If you are talking about the 92.5 stroke, I did not consider that a stroker kit. I thought you were talking about like a 2.2l or something like that
It depends on what kind of sticker you are looking at.Hughes412 said:
Big Bore stroker kit is a 2.1L.
Complete kit includes.
big bore ultra light pistons and low tension rings. compression ratio from 9.5 to 12.5. Bigger valve pockets for larger valve
[coming soon] and higher lift camshafts. balanced light weight stroker crankshaft. Lighter then stock, better oiling then stock and larger fillets for higher rpm load.
Ultra light rods. very light weight and still strong, also good for mid turbo.
HD rod bearings, bearing load capacity, bearing oiling and lower oil temp.
FM/OEM main bearing.
$2380.00.

So you just leave the plastigauge on the crankshaft to make it a "stroker"?
So I think I'm confused. So these are just parts that I would install on my block and head? And is this for the 2.0 Protege? I just want to be sure, so far this sounds just like what I am looking for and so far the price don't look to bad for what all you get

You would need to have your block bored and honed to fit our big bore pistons. As with most stroker engines the bottom of the cylinder walls would need to be clearanced the larger stroke. Any good machine shop can do this. If you do not feel good with any near you you can send us the block and we can do the machine work for you.
As for the cylinder head. It will work fine in stock form. If later on down the road you would like to do one of our big valve heads with a custom set of camshafts you are fine. The pistons are already set for them.

WOW! Someone buy this (before me) to see what this 2.1 can do, NA and FI!

Nick, what's the maximum overbore you'd think is feasable with the FS block? I'd like to bore up to 84.5mm (.060") or 85mm (.080"), but I havn't really been privy to exploring the block terribly much. I have a spare downstairs, but I havn't measured any wall thickness, or really seen how much clearance the water jackets have, and so on. The head gasket seems to have plenty of clearance for an 85mm bore, though. Anyway, let me know what you think, if there's any way I can get to 84.5-85mm bore, even if it requires additional building.
