Not Hap, but...
Hap is using a set of 83mm Wiseco pistons. A couple of us bought these, and they are nice pieces. You can get them. Some different piston is a requirement, as you need to have the wrist pin location higher in the piston to accommodate for the increased stroke. Stock pistons will come out of the bore.
Crank... you will need a 92.8mm crank. You can get it from eurorace. You should use an aftermarket connecting rod (Pauter/Carrillo), but you must use a stock length rod.
Yes, it will all fit into an MC block, but you have to have some clearance grinding done for the rods to clear with the increased stroke. In that regard, the Pauter rods work easier for block clearance than the Carrillos.
Your aftermarket piston should reduce your compression ratio, spec'd properly.

Hap,
I'm building a bottom end for a 10V with NG head and siamized valves.
Interestingly enough the manifold I've procured from a Eurovan to do EFI
already has 2.5 imprinted on it..
So now I'm wondering if I can obtain 2.5l internals to fit into an MC-1
block and if so, what is the cost and where to get them. Also have an NG
block, but assume that would be too high in compression, but maybe that is
what I'd need to use.
Also, how did you deal with the compression issues - if any?

I just picked my car up from the dyno shop where the secondary tuning was
being performed on my AEM managed stroker motor. I'm sitting in an Elite
Glass
shop getting my windshield replaced so I thought I'd put a few preliminary
observations to my computer. Holy S#%&@*!()@)_@)(*&@@?*&%@#!!! This thing
pulls
like nothing I've ever driven or ridden in. I've been in more powerful cars
but
they were unable to deliver their power to the road. That's just one aspect
of
these cars that's so fabulous. My custom Southbend race/street clutch is
performing beautifully. I have to take my hat off to the guys at 3R
Automotive/Racing. The build and fabrication quality on this car are
outstanding. Thanks for
everything Dave.

The question I get asked a lot is, was it worth the time, money and effort?
There isn't an easy answer to that one. I am very happy with the result even
short of final tuning. Building a sroker is NOT for
anyone but the strong of will and or pocket book or preferably both. I love
the GT 35R but its too big for a nonstroker AAN. The 3071R or in some cases,
the GT 30R are much better matches. I went with the 35R because I knew I
would
have a stroker eventually and I didn't want to have to buy another turbo.
Guys
like Dave Dawson and Ben Howell, who's already running a stroker urQuattro
Coupe, with their engineering skill and fabrication abilities can take
something
like this on without outside help but those kind of guys are few and far
between. Oh yeah, it helps if you live in Evahboost like Dave and Ben or
like I
used to ;-)
I think the 2.5 stroker is definitely the way to go. The 2.6 just puts a
little too much stress on the rods, rings, pistons and crank. You've also
got the
issue of piston and ring speed that the extra travel from the longer stroke
provides. Given the low end torque and power I've got with the 2.5, I really
don't see the need for more. Now wait a minute, what about that Nitrous???
No, I
won't be injecting Nitrous but I would consider the Ntercooler from NX.
Next up for the Green Monstah will be a new front coil-over set-up from Dave
Stone. Dave has been developing a complete coil-over system for our cars
which
includes dual adjustable Konis. The fronts are standard Koni 8611 struts
that
are revalved for the urS4/6 and the rears are Koni racing that are revalved
and machined from their standard upper eye fitting to the Audi fitment. He's
also developed a camber/caster plate that is several steps beyond the 2nd
Gen
2Bennett plates that I currently run. Please don't ask because a local
lister
has already put a deposit down on my old suspension. That's all I have for
now,
I just thought I'd share some observations.
