Aug 13, 2002 #2 ivymike Mechanical Joined Nov 9, 2000 Messages 5,653 Location US Typically crank throws in cars are about 0.5*bore, +/- 15% When you say "crankshaft throw" you mean 1/2 stroke, right? Carpoint says that your stroke is 3.14 inches, so your crank throw would be 1.57 inches (39.88 mm). http://carpoint.msn.com/vip/engines.aspx?modelid=2191&src=vip You might want to double check that figure elsewhere; carpoint is often wrong.
