What Should I Get, 1g Or A 2g Dsm?

[slowbubblecar]

My car is going to CW.

i am thinking of getting a 2.3 stroker kit later on. so would the motor matter after that?

Personally, if i was going to build an engine i would build a 6 bolt. 7 bolts do CW more, its a fact. Parts price wise, they are about equal. With a 1g you will have to do some upgrades, like the MAS, Manifold etc that 2gs came with stock. But same deal with the 2gs. If i was going to put the money required into building up an engine i would hate myself forever if i did it in a 7 bolt and it walked. Most 7 bolts will never walk, but some will. Same with 1gs, but they very rarely walk.

so no matter what crankshaft you have if its a 7bolt it has a greater chance to walk?

Crankshaft its not really a factor. Its the oil squirters in the 7 bolt.

Here is how I understand it. Correct me if I'm stupid:
The oil squirters can get clogged and the crank does not get enough oil. The the oil film around the bearing breaks down and you get fucked.

That is just one of the many theories as to why it happens.

:lol:


That is some funny shit!

And yes I would not spend money building a 7 bolt 4g63, even with very small chances of Crank walk...Thats why you build a 7 bolt 4g64 ;)

And if you are going 2.3 later on you will need a different crank pistons and rods anyways. With a 2G you would have to buy a 6 bolt block ~ $150 or so.
