I've calculated that if I shorten the stroke of a 998 crank by 40thou with a 20thou overbore I'll end up with 1000cc.

It's possible, but you would have to reduce the crank pin diameter by at least 80 thou which would weaken it. Conrods and bearings are the next problem.

I'm not bothered about the few extra cc of a 20thou overbore. Although not strictly in the regs it's a stndard overbore and you can't buy 998 blocks anymore, so what can you do?

Calver made the comment yesterday that the P20950 pistons could be dished (as you have done already).

Paul, I've half moved at the moment, so the pistons I have that can be measured are at my old house in Macclesfield. I'll be back there on Monday, so I'll give them a measure and PM you.

If you use an 850 crank and +0.100" P20950 pistons you get 966cc.

My only concern would be how strong the crank is, IIRC the 850 crank is not know for it's strength. Although if you go the 850 route what about IMP pistons? I think +10 IMP pistons with an 850 crank gives you 999cc. Rog and myself looked into this about a year ago, but I can't remember if we posted anything or just talked about it. Here's some nice reading for you: http://www.turbominis.co.uk/forums/index.php?p=vt&tid=125219 Ironically the first post by Paul is probably the most usefull. Edited by Rob H on 30th Nov, 2007.

If you are reducing your stroke by 040. you'll need to reduce the crank diameter by half of this. IF, the crank doesn't need a regrind anyway. 040 bearings are OK to get hold of. Ask Richy.

Your right as usual, but in this case only half right! I was wrong in that to reduce the stroke 40 thou, you need to reduce the throw by 20 thou. But you still need to grind the pin 40 thou thinner to move the centre 20 thou. Saul Bellow - "A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep."

I agree. Why haven't you gone the 970 route instead Wil? Everything will be stronger, make more power etc.. On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:

Bottom end strength isn't a problem either, I have the same crank from my first 998 turbo machined 8 years ago. Also, I don't need any more revs, they'd be great for a circuit racer, but not needed for the hills. 7k gets me to 105 mph, and I only ever get there at avon park.
