what is the stroke of a l20D crank? ----- Original Message ----- From: Brad Hallett To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, August 21, 2002 8:33 PM Subject: RE: LD20 Crank in L20B? (kinda related) All Datsun cranks are forged according to documentation   I have not built one with a diesel crank myself, but seen them done and it is done to increase stroke dramatically, which reduces revs (IE SD33 crank in L28).    If you wanna try it, then do it.  You never know if you never go -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Ross Goddard Sent: Wednesday, 21 August 2002 2:02 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: LD20 Crank in L20B?

I heard a story going round the sprite club about a sprite that had a 'steel bottom end'. Apparently these guys bought this motor with the aforementioned steel crank and rods and fitted the engine to their race sprite. They then proceded to give it an absolute thrashing for a few seasons. It reputedly revved higher and ran better than their previous engine and they were quite impressed with their ' steel bottom end' After a long while the thing finally let go, and they pulled it down to dicover a standard bottom end!!!!!

I'm curious too. :) Original Message dated 8/21/02, 10:44:00 AM Author: "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Re: LD20 Crank in L20B?: List, I was just talking to someone who claimed they once built a hi-po L20B using the LD diesel crankshaft, they claimed it was unbreakable and rev-ed to near motorbike limits:)  I'm a little sceptical , though I've heard of the 6cyl Diesel cranks being used in L6's. Has anyone ever tried this or have any info, just curious, Dan   Do You Yahoo!?
