Default 3.2 stroker 2gs

so i hurt my motor last week and finally got the chance to pull it apart so i can inspect the damage, what we found is due to the failure to injector #4 which caused the piston to melt resulting in the total destruction of the motor.......small hole in to the cylinder wall also metal filing in the oil ......


the motor just pulled from the car waiting to be pulled apart for inspection

my machine just chilling on the lift..........
so with the help of my good friends at big daddy performance center here in south florida we're getting ready to do another build up this time im going with a different set upmore pics to come........randy

sorry to see this happen to your GS, but looks like you are turning a negative into a positive

That sucks. Sorry to hear about the failure. Looks like it is forcing your hand to add more power. I look forward to following your progress.

How are you going to make it a 3.2 stroker? Are you having a custom kit built for you?

yes its a custom built kit........consist of stroked/cut crank,rods and custom pistons with also a lot of prepping of the block to be able to accept the rotating assembly.....
