Crankshaft modification B230F 200

posted by  someone claiming to be MP 245 on  Wed Apr 28 07:32 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Hi

Today I heard about it that Volvo (R-sport division) offered a crankshaft with improved "bore /stroke" ratio...96x90 instead of 96x80 on the standard B230F. They offered too pistons with shorter connecting rods to compensate the higher stroke level. This stuff was sold to improve the B21X or B23X engines. Now my question is...can I use this kind of crankshaft with the shorter connecting rod pistons in my B230F?

Thanks for any input
