7M-GE Stoker?

[ALEXMKIII'86]

Engine internals...7m-ge block with 7m-gte pistons,rods, ect.
Same thing with the head and drive train.:evil3:
yes?
no?
why or why not?

 

[figgie]

umm
no

because they are the same

both 7m-ge and 7m-gte are 91mm stroke.

Only way to stroke is to buy a stroker kit from suprarich or flatlanders (suprarich would be ideal) and go from there. Of course you can be crazy and do what defiant"Allen"7m did and do a 101mm stroke.

I did it backwards...7MGE internals in GTE block running a turbo. Not exactly my smartest decision. :3d_frown:

 

[AJ'S 88NA]

I have the Flatlander kit. Don't know if Defiant ever got his 101 running yet I know he was close a few months ago.

I think everything is the same except for the oil squirters.

 

[supra_kid101]

Yea but I added a 60-1 ct26 hehe at 12psi.

Pistons are different. GTE = 8.4 CR and GE = 9.2 CR. Someone correct me if i'm wrong.

Ge= 9.8:1

How would one go about getting one of these stroker kits.
Whats the price range on the kits.
Or where could I find them at?

 

[supra_kid101]

Lol I meant 9.2:1 my bad. I've never heard of 9.8:1 being stock.

 

[IJ.]

I got the info from the Toysport Tech info site but have never CC'd one to confirm it.

 

[sean210]

I was told I could boost my N/A as long as I didnt go crazy and go high with the boost.

 

[Quin]

Sure can, you'll just be limited to what you can run on pump gas.

 

[sean210]

But I think as of this thread I am going with a stroker kit.

 

[Quin]

Don't. You'll make about the same power as a turbo car with a full 3", stock CT, but you'll pay a lot more for it.

 

[sean210]

Don't. You'll make about the same power as a turbo car with a full 3", stock CT, but you'll pay a lot more for it.

What does a stroker kit do then?

Would I be better off just getting stonger N/A rods, pistons.
Then boosting that.

 

[Quin]

What are your power goals? For most things, a stock bottom end is fine, though you want to get oil squirters (not sure if you can modify a GE for them or not). You just looking for a fairly quick street car, right? 3-500hp?

Stroker kits don't do a whole lot for a 7M, at least not compared to a turbo. NA vs NA stroker, there is quite a bit of difference (AJ up there is making ~220rwhp NA, IIRC), but the cost effectiveness and reliability are concerns of mine. Some motors (like the Nissan L28, for example) can benefit greatly from stroking and boring. A stock L28E puts out MAYBE 160rwhp, compared to a 3.1l stroker making close to 270 with some 3.2s making just over 300rwhp.

 

[sean210]

I was thinking stoker and turbo. But when I think about n/a turbo.
It just seem I can put out more that way.

 

[AJ'S 88NA]

Takes a lot to get power from a GE. Mine dynoed at 215 before the Maft-Pro and bigger injectors, maybe 230 now. Stroker kit will run upwards of 2k and then you have to change a lot of other things to get the full potential.

 

[SupaMan]

for 2k you could just buy a gte motor or n/a-t your motor with turbo everything.


ninja edit: or try to find a turbo thats got a crappy body and runs good for 2k then swap everything from the n/a into the turbo car and turbo into the n/a and then you can race and beat on the n/a as much as you please and not worry alot about it

 

[IJ.]

Bang for the $ on a stroker GE just isn't there.

Listen to AJ he knows all about this concept.
