when people talk of the short stroke engines I don't under stand why it is never mentioned about the 92mm RS piston and cylinder sets. The compression is 10.3 but according to BA's book the short stroke will reduce the compression to about 9.3. I have a 2.2T engine and that would of been the route I would take. However there could be an issue with the piston and cylinders for this application that I'm unaware of. The 9.3 compression should work with the cams you want and there should not be any valve to piston issues. Does anyone have any experance with this conversion? Does it make sence to you more experinced engine builders.I was going to put the 2.2 in a 914 about 18 years ago(man now I feal old) but I joined the Army (read very poor for many years) and sold the car. Maybe in the future I can try to do it again.
