2.1 and MD321T
Anybody running this combo on a newage? If so good and bad points please, i have a 2.2 block here with forged internals i was going to drop in. Or just do the norm and drop a 2.5 in her?
I need to decide which route to take, full blown 2.2 or a 2.1 stroker. Cost is swaying me to the 2.2 i have but it could always be sold i suppose to fund a stroker or a 2.5.
Ive ruled 2.35 out due to cost mainly and its a road car so will be sticking with current supporting mods just changing the block.

Yes they both use a 79mm crank however piston size is different. For a 2.1 a 2.0 block can be used no problem
For a 2.3 you need a 2.2 block or a destroked 2.5block or a relinered block
I have forged internals for a 2.2 block and the block but its 75mm crank, maybe just stick with what i have due to costs.
Hopefully somebody out there will be running a 2.1 or 2.2 with a 321T to get some feedback.

For a pure road car the 2.5 is hard to beat, the torque is immense.
However I love the 2.0, also a 2.1 is a good compromise, at a price I find acceptable.
