4.7L Stroker For 99 XJ build

[Russ Pottenger]

I have a Machine shop.
I also build in supply many of the parts and components that go into the Stroker engines including pistons and connecting rods to complete stroker kits

I'm a little unclear if you're just refreshing the existing Stroker you have or are you changing or upgrading any of the components.

You're welcome to shoot me a call or email

No this is my first striker build and only my second engine rebuild. First was a 72 Volkswagen beetle. I understand what I need, and what I need to do to get there, just unclear on what I need to provide the machine shop when I take it for work.

[Russ Pottenger]

If you understand what you need, and what you need to get there. Then what is your question. Unless I'm missing something you need to be more specific in what you're asking.

[Cosgray]

I don't know what I would need to provide the machine shop when I take the block and head for machining.

Anything That is usually missed when people take their motor for machining? Should I provide all of my parts, or only a few? Should I print out a sheet with dimensions and tolerances?

I'm an Electro-mechanical engineer, so I know how machine shops operate, but not when it comes to engines.

Being that you have a machine shop, what information/components have people not provided that should be provided when they bring in their motor for work?

[Cosgray]

I know that if I go to the machine shop, and hand them my block and head, and all I say is, "Hey give me a +.060" overbore, zero the deck, and a port and polish. Also, balance this crankshaft, and recondition the rods." I'll be laughed at.

[Russ Pottenger]

Ok. My original offer stands. I'll be happy to put together a Stroker package together for you along with specifications for your machine shop

[SkylinesSuck]

Take Russ's advice.

Well I have already sourced my crankshaft, connecting rods, and camshaft. What would you charge for 3.935" bore, dished pistons? Roughly 1.35 compression distance.

My Pistons with choice of .931 or a 927 pin if you want floating pins, cost $495.00 a set.
I'd recommend a CD of 1.385 but will build them to any spec you want.
