At the risk of sounding like a retard and not wanting to waste time/money I have come to the all knowing Banshee HQ to find some assistance in selecting a crank for my shee. To start at the beginning I decided to throw a port job in my shee from trinity, after a season in the sand and a few TT races there was that distenct sound of a rod bearing. It was doing that nasty ticking sound it makes right before it lets go of the crank. I would like to use this repair to up the out put of the motor by running a stroker. This is where I run into my problem. I am told, that because cylinders have already been ported they cannot be port timed to a stroker crank. So instead I was going to put in a stock stroke +5mm long rod crank from hot rod. My question is do I run blaster pistons to off set the length of the rod or do I run a spacer plate under the cylinders? What are the differences, how is the port timming effected?
