dirtmunkee Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Finally putting banshee back together after a long time. Had blown a piston skirt . Bought it years ago and has alot of mods. Has hotrods crank. Cylinders at shop and just got word what they will clean up at. My dumbass should of put back on to measure stroke. Rods measure stock but bottom end of rod looks like it is about as close as possible to edge of crank( close to casing). Been pouring the net asking anything possible. Numbers on the pistons, hotrods, this and that, blah, blah,blah. All i need to know is pin to dome edge height of stock piston. Any one have one lying around to measure just dont feel like making some fancy jig to set it in to measure whether long or short stroke. Im mean come on google...you know everything except the one thing i want to know. Thanks for any input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry's Shee Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Presume stock jugs? A stoker would have spacer under jugs, head, or 2mm cut in head or domes. Long rod would have higher pin height. Piston should have some number on it. A good shop would want new pistons in hand to bore/hone to fit.

Long rod would have higher pin height. Piston should have some number on it. A good shop would want new pistons in hand to bore/hone to fit. yes they want the pistons. I know all about the spacer, cut domes, blaster piston, etc. Has no spacer or cuts. Old piston is a 393 on bottom of pin opening wiseco believed to be power pistons from vitos from the reciepts i have for it. Just want to make sure it doesnt have the higher pin height to make up for stroke which a measurement from piston top to pin should tell me. Google cant find that measurement for shit. Cases are split and tore apart to make sure all is ok and cleaned up. So no easy way to rotate and measure without setting crank up in something. Thanks for any help.

dirtmunkee Posted July 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 so rods are 110mm? if so use stock pistons. thats what im guessing is stock. Just wondering cause some people saying hot rods only makes 115mm +4 stroke some say they make 110mm +4 stroke. But i guess that if it was just stock length and +4 the piston pin would only have to be 2 higher to meet deck which ive not heard of. Think im just going to get old piston out to them to match up for sure. But thanks for help. And zilla i see you are right here in amelia. Im right down the road in eastgate. So just wondering if you know of any good local places to ride besides haspin acres. Gonna be ready to take it out somewhere. Itching to get it out. Been a long time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleeper06 Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 Post a pic of crank I can usually tell by pin orientation in web and stock stroke cranks came not welded stroker are welded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider11 Posted July 29, 2015 Report Share Posted July 29, 2015 but that doesn't mean you couldn't have the stocker welded.No. But on some you can see the pin is in a groove. Stock are usually below the groove. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stock are usually below the groove. Thanks for info. I will post some good pics when I get home later on about 7 est. or so. It is welded. Rods have to be 110. Setting caliper at 115 is obviously longer than center to center. Big end just looks like it is as close to outer diameter of crank as possible but thinking about it more it may have room to push it out that extra 2mm. As for my pistons I contacted vitos and confirmed they are(or were in the case of the one)his super stock and he was like 4 months out on being able to get any. He rambled on so fast was hard to take info in . Said I could just run stock wisecos but would be losing about 8hp. That sucks. But cylinders have to go to 65.5 to clean up. And not looking to spend a fortune at the moment. Guess ill just go this route to get it back on the dirt and research more then build the shit out of it when time/money allows. Any thoughts/advice appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtmunkee Posted July 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2015 Where in eastgate do you live? I am buying a house in a month or so in eastgate (off clough) im off mt carmel tobasco by smyth. But got pictures of crank. But i guess i have to figure out how to compress file. To large of file size. Only have tablet at the moment. Damn kid locked up my computer. To much malicious porn downloads:). But i dont need it and now he has no computer....teach him.. lol. But anyway will figure out to load pics. But with a straight edge across crank directly under bottom of rod and a(cheap ass mm guage )standing up from bottom off rod. Then measuring with a good digital to that mark gives me right at 2 mm before rod is flush with outer diameter of crank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
