need recomendations on a crank kit

[coggonbrien]

any issues with wiseco or should i do something else? i don't race and the motor already has a .040 wiseco piston.

thanks,
David

if you wanna go stock wiesco is fine. But if you wanna go stroker go hotrods.

i like vitos because its a +3 and you can port the jug while its off for some powa along with the fact you dont have to get the cases trenched.

 

[coggonbrien]

ok, i considered vito's. realistically all we do is mostly ride the gravel's from farm to farm with some occasional mudding. so i like the wiseco simply since it come's complete with near bearings and gaskets. any other thoughts?

 

[super noober]

i wouldnt buy a wiseco kit.. there have been issues with them being waaaaaay out of balance, just check you tube.. if you dont want to go the stroker route i would get a standard hotrods crank then buy quality cometic gaskets. those wiseco kits are dirt cheap for a reason lol

i second that, hot rods and stock cranks for stayong stock stroke, those wiseco paper gaskets suck

stick to OEM or cometic gaskets, they have proven themselves

 

[coggonbrien]

ok, do hotrod's come with new bearings?

 

[darederek]

just buy bearings with the crank...

 

[coggonbrien]

also do you buy direct from hotrod? finally for the price am i better off to go ahead and just get a vito's +3? thanks,
David

 

[Larry's Shee]

Probably cheaper from a retailer.

 

[Blasterr525]

no, purchase cometic gaskets! please save yourself some money!

 

[griz427]

what really will a stroker do?more bottom end?

 

[coggonbrien]

yes, more low end torque

 

[coggonbrien]

anybody else have thoughts. any issues with a vito +3? also where are you guys buying your bearings and cometic gaskets?

Thanks,
David
