stroker with 92,8 crank.

[rxl]

in fist stage im going for alberts k26 Turbo and after that we will see but Need so sort some other things first.
if i rev to stock Limit i think it will be enought..
so ported head with stronger springs,titanium retainers and lighter hydros and oversize valves are a good Combo for this stroker?

ordered a new oil pump form stealers for my build and they said that the gasket for the oil pump is NLA.. crazy ****...

For 92,8 stroker and that kind of K26 I think titanium retainers and stiffer springs are not yet necessary, but ok, if you want...they are at least no downgrade :-) but the lighter lifters I would avoid. They are less reliable than stock ones, still in higher revs, as I heard several times. And you do not need the high revs; with that turbo, I estimate full torque between 3000 and 3500 rpm and peak power between 6000 and 6500, so why rev up to 7500? This will be a really great setup without revving out to max :-)

It's for the second stage.. So stock hydros and everything modified? Do I need to modify the pistons if I get oversize valves?

I for myself would recommend stock hydros, yes. For really higher revs then maybe mechanical ones, but the step between it, with lightweight hydro ones, I would not do. Just my 2 cent. There is a thread in this forum with explanations to lighter ones and a good link.

I do not know what pistons you´ll take- I don´t even know, if there are genuine ones that fit. Heard rumours about the TFSI ones to fit- but just rumours so probably pistons have to be machined anyway. I haven´t heard about problems with bigger valves hitting pistons- CR is low, so there should be much space But that´s other people to answer surely

I would not use the lightweight hydraulic lifters, they have collapsed and taken out a few engines new.

so standard hydros
anything else that is not to upgrade in the engine?

going for custom pistons..
