PAUTER RODS AND CP PISTONS FOR 2.0 STROKED ENGINE

stock bore/stroke = 83 x 85 = 1.839 L

custom bore/stroke = 86 x 87.5 = 2.033 L

stock rods = 5.236"/133mm center-to-center

custom rods = 5.275"/134mm center-to-center

Maruha head gasket = 86mm bores x 2mm thick

pistons = custom made to our specs by CP Pistons

rods = custom made to our specs by Pauter Rods

The 2.5mm additional stroke comes from a combination of lengthening the rod 1mm and also reducing the crank journal's diameter and shifting ("offsetting") its center 1.5mm outward.

86mm pistons took 5 weeks to make.
