74zzz Posted April 26, 2015 Posted April 26, 2015 Hi Guys just thought id post a bit of info for you. Have been planning on a rebuild that will be completed by the end of this year after researching for way too long. Anyway came acorss spool many moons ago and the seem to be doing crazy things with other nissan motors with their stroker kits. Long story short they have had an l28 stroker link that goes no where on their site for ages and i finally decided to send an email to find out if they are actually ever going to release a kit the response is as follows..... Hi Lawrence We hope to start on the L28 stroker cranks within the next few months. We have just completed a Holden 355, Nissan TB48 and finishing the Toyota 1UZ stroker cranks, so we have been pretty busy with cranks. The only issue I haven’t sorted on the L28 is what final stroke to make the crank, and rod length. So i thought id just put it out there to how many would be interested as im sure if the demand was there he would finalise a little quicker haha:) cheers! Quote
Riceburner Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 Are the cranks fully counter weighted? May as well get them to do a 90mm crank with corresponding rods to get a 3.4L. Quote
74zzz Posted April 27, 2015 Author Posted April 27, 2015 Yep all seem to be counter weighted............ didnt bother asking what size hes going to make.......... 3.4 to me seems like you could be playing with a grenade? id be more than happpy with 3.1/2 tried and and tested over and over Quote
dat2kman Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 Linky to site? Do they do a 2.4 kit for SR20? Quote
74zzz Posted April 27, 2015 Author Posted April 27, 2015 No Jason the only do a 2.2 kit can't copy use.... Phone is playing up but just google spool imports sr20 stroke kit Quote
Administrators gav240z Posted April 27, 2015 Administrators Posted April 27, 2015 Are the cranks fully counter weighted? May as well get them to do a 90mm crank with corresponding rods to get a 3.4L. +1, what sort of pricing are we looking at? Quote
74zzz Posted April 27, 2015 Author Posted April 27, 2015 did not ask as it hasn't been developed..... their rb28 strokers go for 5700 so im guess the l28 will be cheaper than that.......... Quote
d3c0y Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 Why would it be cheaper, essentially the same thing? Quote
74zzz Posted April 28, 2015 Author Posted April 28, 2015 more demand is what im thinking for the rb kits so i just assumed theyd try to get more mileage from them............ but yes pretty much the same thing i guess...........wishful thinking Quote
d3c0y Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 If there is more demand, wouldn't that make them cheaper? PMC's 3.4L stroker kit is around that money anyway. Quote
74zzz Posted April 28, 2015 Author Posted April 28, 2015 righto your point's been made........ his rb28 stroker kit is more expensive than his rb29 stroker so there isnt consistency with his pricing........ Anyway to those that aren't going to argue about a price, just thought i'd keep you in the loop as ive been waiting for an off the shelf kit for a long while that isn't kameari prices and that's made locally......

NZeder Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 I too have been talking to spool about a big l28 stroke cranks. My discussions were sometime ago and around using a 89mm stroke and a Honda b16a rod which has 134.36mm center to center length and good bearing as available for them the are a 48mm journal so will give more block clearance as at 89mm stoke if using stock journal things will be very tight and lots of metal will need to me removed for clearances. This does mean a small compression height for the piston of 29mm however a side bonus is the Honda uses a 21mm little end so then that means the same piston could be used on a 85mm stroke with L14 spec rod in 136.4mm. So 2 setups could be sold. Big stroke or bigger stroke. Quote
74zzz Posted April 29, 2015 Author Posted April 29, 2015 so what capacities would they make NZeder? Would be brilliant if he could do a range like they have with the rbs Quote
d3c0y Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 Depends on the bore but if you put it with an 89mm bore 3.35L Quote
74zzz Posted April 29, 2015 Author Posted April 29, 2015 doesnt that make cylinders paper thing though? can imagine there would be much metal left between bores....... the idea of detonation or cracking a block would freak me out too much to go that big.....i aint made of the money to make mistakes with Quote
d3c0y Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 All 3.1L strokers are 89mm bore, you need to sonic test the block to find one that will go that far. Pretty common practice though. Quote
NZeder Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 Or stick with a safer 88mm bore and get 3257cc aka 3.3l that is what I would do Quote
