Sam 4 Posted June 27, 2006 As the topic really. I've searched and some people mention them and others don't? I need to order some bearings for my 88mm 'XU9 fit' crank. Could someone confirm the answers in this thread (use all XU9D bearings) as I need to get it bang on really http://forum.205gtidrivers.com/index.php?showtopic=41451&hl= Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sam 4 Posted June 29, 2006 (edited) Thanks for that, guess I better order some XU9D Main shells. Seems no one else has done it (or wants to tell me how at least ), must be paying people to build them? Edited June 29, 2006 by Sam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Veero 1 Posted June 30, 2006 (edited) [stupid question] Sorry why put an XU9 crank in an XU10? [/stupid question] Veero Edited June 30, 2006 by Veero Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PsychoSimon 0 Posted June 30, 2006 because it has a 2mm longer stroke than an xu10 thus incresing compression ratio and displacement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shevy 4 Posted June 30, 2006 With the standard Iron block 86mm bore and fitting the 1.9 88mm crank will give a capacity increase to 2044cc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smckeown 1 Posted June 30, 2006 with the power your aiming for, can you actually use an XU9 crank ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sam 4 Posted June 30, 2006 What happened to your uber-flash secret crank? I'm still using that crank, its just that its direct fit to an XU9 so I need to get the bits for that crank. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
