In the past I've made an 2.8 based on a 3.0 bore and 2.5 stroke. That brings CR down from 10.0 to 7.7. I however installed a turbocharger so it worked out well
Many Thnks for your advice, I haven't got enough knowledge about this engines range because I never have done any of those , the idea was use the 2.0 crank and block , then mechanize wet 3.0 liners to leave it on 2.0 stroke or maybe a bit less(and so the block will need mechanize) fit 3.0 STD pistons with new rings and 3.0 head mechanized to try to reach 11.5 -12 CR . All this is theory without have done any and with no knowledge about those engines, maybe it can be done or not. Then run the engine with 48 IDF and fit 290/306º cams to try to match as much as possible stratos original dino engine power curve, a shot ratio engine revs in a different way vs long stroke when is not boosted , so that was my idea when I decide to go this way . I repeat all this is theory maybe it cant be done .My idea is try to match as much as possible the soul of a Gr.4 Stratos doing things with 2018 technology.
