Re: Configuration of strong engine

It's ages since I built an engine with Renault rods, but as I remember it, the shorter rods but higher piston crown means the Pistons protrude from the bores by about 25 thou. You can either machine the piston crown or put a spacer under the cylinder block, but it's not a straight swap.

Re: Configuration of strong engine

Bonsoir Alexandre,

JE suis également en train de faire une spéciale avec un moteur LR2,John Barlow vend un carter grande capacité en alu et d'autres pièces coulées comme un collecteur pour mettre un SU, les tubulures d'eau et le cache soupape ,les dimensions sont les mèmes .

Beaucoup de pièces spéciales y compris les culasses alu se montent sur le LR2

Bonne soirée
