Well this was to put an early (?) 1098 in a 948.  Looks the same externally but you get the extra torque .  The idea of going to 1430 had not crossed my mind… though now that you mention it…

Lester,

I'd Love to hear more about the Stroker Crank Idea!
I heard rumors, years ago, that you could put a 2" main 1098 in a 1275 and
get up to a 1430 from a 1380.
I searched for more info, but wasn't able to find any.
Any info(what Rod/piston changes needed) would be appreciated!

Thanks!

Look down the spark plug holes with a scope to check for piston damage.

Curse that I will have to remove the head anyway

Curse that if I had installed my rebuild with the 1098 stroker crank I could have been driving this car.

YMMV
