You can get 1mm / 40 thou oversized pistons or are you after more compression?

I would be looking at a 32/36 Weber first up, and then trying to find ome "Dual Port" Heads, and the cam to match. And finally play with the pistons.

You won't do it without a turbo. Look around for an EA81T or even an EA82T. Otherwise you'll spend a lot of money dissapointing yourself. If you want the best bang for your buck though, an EJ20T is still the way to go.

I don't normally get real excited over old engines, but those last two pics are pure porn :).

Changing rods and pistons doesn't give you a stroker.

You need a crankshaft first, at least offset ground pins.

Id imagine that turbo EA81 picture that i posted would be gutless till about 4000rpm, going by the size of the turbo and the restrictive heads of the EA81.

If i remember correctly, i got it from an aviation website, meaning it was for an aeroplane and spends 99% of its running time at full throttle and probably about 4000-5000rpm

Would still be lots of fun though

Nope, from the research I've done the EA81T factory heads are basically EA81 heads but they have an injector boss cast in them.

RSR has a set at his joint somewhere. There are plenty of pics of EA81T heads on the internet to look at if you're keen.

On the EJ pistons - forget the stroker bit, you can run EJ20 pistons on an EA81 rod with the gudgeon pin bush removed to fit the EJ20 gudgeon pin. From what the USMB boys have reported back on this is that there's no long term issues without that bush/spacer in the rod.
