Stroker BBC oil consumption
I need a bit of input from the array of engine experts here. My son has a BBC ¼” stroker crankshaft and wants to build a 482/489/496 for street with an occasional trip to the strip. We are looking at using hypereutectic pistons as they fit a bit tighter in the bore. I have read/heard there may be oil consumption issues with these engines when using a 6.385 rod -- wrist pin is positioned within the oil ring grove.
Any comments/feedback/suggestions are appreciated! TAZ
