I have a K100 short block in the pile, I will pull rods and pistons this weekend. Don't think I have any 998 rods lying about, it might be a while before I can try a rod mod. |

well that was weird, the post double barfed, looks like I posted twice. No "delete" button. I will edit this second post to see what happens this time.

I measured a K100 piston, yes the pin diameter is 18mm and compression height is just under 33 mm. |

hate these double posts so I decided to edit this one. In case nobody else has found it, the web site describing Gregg Temkin's 850 can be found at

What happens if you +80 over bore it and pocket the block like if you did the 1275 head on a 998 block would that work? this is the convertion i'm thinking of doing. but this amount of machining is putting me off a little bit. |

I went as far as buying an 8v K100 head, then after looking at the bodging that was required, sold it and bought an SC 7-port. Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

the design shows a distinct lack of imagination, talk about starting off with a clean sheet of paper, then not bothering to fucking draw on it,lol On 20th Apr, 2012 Paul S said:
I'm mainly concerned about swirl in the runners caused by the tangential entry. |

I scrapped this project when i worked out how I could do a better job with a 5 Port. Saul Bellow - "A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep."
