1904cc build VW mini stroker

[@smokepeddler]

Clean build for a good cause. God Bless you.

[@volkstroke]

Yes, thank you

[@adammiller6606]

Runs like a Swiss watch. Awesome!

[@VWRICH23]

Sounds amazing, nice build

Thanks!

Man talk about attention to detail. Your builds are impressive and just look and sound amazing. Keep it up!

Thank you

Thanks ✌️

Wooooow, thanks for the tip. The plates came out really nice 🔥👍🏽

[@vwsandvettes3253]

Very nice! Can you recommend a good oil filter adapter/mount to go with my CB Performance 30mm Maxi Pump? I also will be running a setrab (susa) oil thermostat from/to the filter to/from a CB Atomic Cool Fan or a Setrab torsion mount fan, I haven't decided which yet. Can you recommend where to purchase a set of good blue an-8 fittings and braided lines? For what I'd like to see more of, I'd vote 1) the blue super stocker 2) Your flyin' ragtop oval 3) That turbo green car with the widened fiberglass fenders. I have a buttload of vw racing parts and I watch everything you do to become a better builder. Thank you - Ted

[@volkstroke]

Okay sir copy I recomend the geers engineering reusable filter

[@volkstroke]

And for fittings and hose I only use Tftp Teflon from Deeeing industrial in Long Beach

[@douglasstewart4578]

I did a build almost exactly like that but with 42 DCNFS! RAD!

[@volkstroke]

Good stuff

[@JohnReynolds661]

Looks and sounds good. I remember when I built a 2180 (40yrs ago!) I recall reading a Hot VW magazine about what size engine to build. There answer was just go big, it's close to the same money. Maybe I'm just dumb here, but why does someone stop at a 74mm crank? I get it that there is more machining with larger strokes but it looks like that had already been done.

[@volkstroke]

Just because it’s a lowered car and it’s an easy combo to put together small rod puts the deck height close to 0 just a easy build

[@bearvw1966]

74 is easy to built and robust 👍

[@orbitaljellyfish808]

1) rod ratio/rod length (cost) 2) engine width 3) deck height/comp ratio When I was 17 I pushed the limit and built a (IIRC) 78.4 x 90.5 and used stock (uprated bolts, clearanced) rods, normal pin offset pistons, 110 cam, relatively mild valve springs, and no barrel shims or head o-rings. The deck height was right at the minimum tolerance to prevent piston/head impact (11 thou? 13? Something like that). The comp ratio was over 10:1 but the close deck meant quench prevented detonation. Even with 91 octane ca/nv/az pissy premium. But head temp plays into that compression ratio situation; this was a doghouse fan inside an oem 36 hp shroud. I modified the backing plate and fan hub spacer to fit the bigger fan in the smaller shroud to help avoid high temps on hot days. I proceeded to daily drive and deliver pizza (!!) every night (blasting Metallica ajfa lol) in that car for about a year until I sold it to get a 5.0 😂 It was faster when I sold it than the (automatic with 2.73 gears) 5.0 when I bought it. Better days gone by lol Anyway hope that answers the question.

@volkstroke Got a beetle again 63, I just have to get out of my debt, and then yes, sir, 1 part at a time. Keep the videos coming. By the way the 40 hp in the convertible video is awesome too that's what I'm trying to bring back now.

Dpr custom German

Sounds great ! What size are the squirt jets and exhaust valves ? On return to idle, do you encounter a dip in return to idle?? Great job you did. Thanks.

Carburetors were allegedly rebuilt by jayybut the shafts are bad and vibrate so Garry Berg is going to fix them monday

Nice job, David. I watch your vids from Spain. Would this engine run with a single 40 IDF for daily use? How many HP can I expect? Gracias y sigue así, hermano.

[@volkstroke]

Not sure single Weber is not ideal. They were designed to run as duals

How many sets of silverline main bearings do you go through until you get good tolerances? I have 3 sets so far and I still can't get everything in spec

I have bags of them 2 sometimes 4 it’s usually the centers but I use og kolbe on high RPM engines not this one

6:10 6:25 & 7:50 oil pressure drops to 0 curious what caused that ?

It never went to 0 gauge it’s upside down lowerst it went was 20

[@jefflivingston1680]

I see you were cranking it over for a while with no plugs in it, Was that just to build oil pressure? and or cam and lifter wear? how long do you crank it? or are you looking for a certain pressure? After it starts, you are running at a higher RPM? Is that for cam and lifter run in? Rings to seat? How long? What RPM?

[@volkstroke]

Yes to everything just want to see 40 lbs or 60 and the. Just Tun at 3000 for 15 minutes twice then make it idle at 1000 and have it do that for another gallon of gas
