We've been fortunate to have gained extensive experience with the NSX engine with 54 NSX engines complete or in process to date. Several years ago, we introduced our 3.5L stroker kit which includes a billet machined 4340 alloy steel crankshaft, connecting rods, and 2618 forged aluminum alloy pistons. The kit utilizes a 93mm bore x 86mm stroke for a total displacement of 3.5L. The package is made possible with an advanced crankshaft design with enlarged main and connecting rod pins to support the increased power of these engines. Cross-drilled oiling pattern with increased bore and chamfered oiling holes increase connecting rod lubrication supply. The factory cylinder block is align bored and honed to accept the larger main pins during processing. The rotating assembly fits into the confines of the factory cylinder block with no additional machining or grinding required.
The engine short block assembly is nearly identical between naturally aspirated and forced induction engines. The naturally aspirated engine uses lightweight tapered H beam connecting rods while the forced induction application uses a heavy duty H beam connecting rod with 3/8" CARR bolts.
The larger displacement 3.5L engine with a 93mm bore and 86mm stroke greatly increases power throughout the RPM band with much greater torque at lower engine speeds for both naturally aspirated and forced induction applications. Natural aspiration 3.5L engines are capable of up to 450 horsepower at the engine with suitable induction and cylinder head modification and forced 3.5L induction engines are capable of in excess of 700 horsepower at the engine with suitable forced induction system.
Previously, we have required customers to send the entire NSX to ScienceofSpeed for the 3.5L engine so that we could verify quality of installation during every step of the assembly, installation, and tuning processes. Based on popular demand, we've developed a more flexible progream specifically targeted to customers where sending the vehicle to ScienceofSpeed is not feasible (such as international customers).
The ScienceofSpeed 3.5L Short Block Engine Program provides the customer with a blueprint assembled engine ready for cylinder heads and accessories.
The core short block program provides a pre-assembled cylinder block that has all wear surfaces replaced or machined for like-new condition. The assembly includes the complete rotating assembly, bearings, and factory seals. Each specification (oil clearances, piston - cylinder wall clearance, mass of rotating components, etc.) is documented during the blueprinted assembly and provided with the assembled short block. The short block is ready for assembly with customer prepared cylinder heads.
