Re: Engines


Just a thought, but 92's are just too big for decent cooling on a type3.  
I've heard this way too many times too ignore.  The bigger pistons have 
so much surface area on the barrels that the fan and cooling tin on an 
otherwise stock motor will be insufficient to cool the motor to within 
suggestable parameters.  If you want displacement, go with a stroker 
crank if you can afford it, and try to stick to 88 pistons.  This was 
professed to me straight from the Berg's mouths so I trust it.
