    Default Deck Height for GSXR1100 w/c

    I am in the process of installing a 5mm stroker crank in my 1198 w/c dry block engine and was needing to know what my deck height should be. Also how thick should my cylinder spacer be? I never messed with stroker cranks so I thought I better ask the experts. Thanks in advance for you help!!!

    Deck height is not universal it is based on your given package.
    You must dummy it up check how far in or out in your case the pistons are then you order a plate and base gaskets to zero the deck or to put your pistons where you want them.

    This should be the time you check your piston to valve clearance if you have a few washers u can put on your studs to get a favorable deck height. I dummy with an old butchered stock head gasket to make shure i dont waste a good copper gasket for mock up purposes.Pull it down lightly check piston to valve. Order your stroker plate and base gaskets bolt it together.

    Finish your engine build

    by the way i got most of a 1298 84mm mtc billet max watercooled motor you interested
    super nice

    Your going to need a .100 thick spacer plate and @ least .065 piston to valve intake and .080 on the ex side. If you have stock rods leave a minimum of .042 piston to head. If you have h-beam carrilo rods you can go around .035 piston to head. All motor.
