GTA Crankshaft

Post by Jose_76 »

I'm just wondering...Can a stock 3.0 12v crankshaft be substituted by a GTA one to increase de volume to 3.2?

How does stroking work. Smaller diameter and center moved up, half the decreased diameter?
Sounds like an expensive operation, but on the other hand a 3.2 crank won't be cheap also.

So, the GTA crank can't be fitted with std 9,5:1 or 10:1 pistons in a 3.0 12v, right?
