Apart from the bold bits, this whole post made no sense to me.

Sounds good but you would be better running a diesel crank and staying around 2.1 if you want it to rev.

Don't think you can even get an ABF to 2.3ltrs anyway

How are you getting to 2.3?
Even using 83.5mm pistons (the largest you can go reliably on an ABF block) and on a 1Y Diesel crank (95.5mm stroke) you only get 2090cc.
I believe Eurospec do a stroker crank...which may give slightly nearer 2200cc...but 2.3?
How?

Have you found a 4 branch for an ABF that's any good...if so, please let me know...because I haven't.
Supersprint make one...if you can find one.

What sized valves are you proposing?
Hard to get much bigger than standard...+1mm will go...at mega expense.

Just curious...

100mm crank.


Will have to get a tube manifold made.

Wo does a 100mm crank?
Eurospec?

Doesn't a 100mm stroke crank give you 2190cc?
I thought that was the one that gives the 2.2.
