​​                                                             PORTED CYLINDERS and CASES



Here at C & R Mfg., we have scanned Millers latest and best  porting  spects in both cases and cylinders  which have been flow bench tested and ran on his in house dyno to create maximum power. This has been an ongoing project for Mel and his latest engines have produced more power than the  earlier ones. The HP of his latest personal1194 engine was estimated at 270 HP using his fuel flow gauges from the dyno and comparing to earlier dyno runs. Our 5 axis CNC machines  can accurately reproduce his latest  precise  workmanship for maximum performance.  I doubt if anyone else has the equipment to flow and dyno test their porting skills like Miller did.  

   We will also slightly enlarge the crankshaft area in the case  to allow the use of larger diameter , stronger crankshaft that can be stroked up  to 88 mm or  ( +10 mm stroke ). 

   Cylinder porting is needed to open up the intake area to fed the big bore pistons as the larger sleeves will reduce the size of the stock intake channels. The more fuel you can efficiently burn , the more power you'll make..   


We are very picky about choosing cases and cylinders to port. Cases need to be 2001 or newer with the 3 gussets above the mag area. Cylinders from 1998 and newer , in good condition can be used. We serial number each case half and the cylinders when received and use a log sheet to record all operations. 

Stroker spacers

These are highly recommended  for all   RACING STROKER   engines to keep the cylinder and head solidly assembled to the case top.

12 mm diameter 17-4 stainless studs and nuts    $ 360

​

​ They are blasted after the final porting clean-up  and look like new.

Our cases are high quality 2001 and newer with 3 gussets over the mag area. We chemically strip all paint and primer and inspect for cracks, chase all threads ,add helicoils where needed,  CNC port** and polish to Miller spects  then finish by bead blasting ready for your paint.

** NOTE:  Crankcase opening will be substantially larger than stock.  Our big bore cylinders will match up perfectly. On unported cylinders, you may want to grind away the cylinder ledges to match our case to yours for improved performance.

Spacers on both top and bottom of the cylinders are required on stroker engines to gain space for the extra stroke length. They are water jet cut at our plant and match the shape of the  ported engines perfectly. Sizes are available for all strokes.

                   Cost  for both    $ 250

Here are several cases and cylinders . The lower set are 2 of 4 the patterns I received from Miller that we can  CNC reproduce.  Some have been machined , some not yet. .The one unique head as well as sleeve and cylinder  is for an 1194R triple port engine, same as in the Miller XPL that I have.

This is my Miller built  supercharged  1165 cc +8 stroker that has seen about 200 gallons of C16 fuel and boost levels of 3 to 12 lbs.. I was pleasantly happy , but not surprised ,  to see very minimal wear. Sleeves had .0002 ( two ten thousands ) wear.. Pistons had .002  ( two thousands ) of shinkage after 3 years and about 40 hours of hard running and testing. This shows how durable Miller designed parts are..

  Proper break in is required .

                                   These have been bead blasted, notice the finish.

Our cylinders are high quality from 1998 on up .We chemically strip all paint and primer , inspect for cracks, chase all threads, add helicoils where needed, CNC port and polish to Miller spects then finish by bead blasting ready for your paint. We mill some off the exhaust flange to create more top end power. The cylinders perfectly match our CNC ported cases and will not match up with unmodified stock cases. Crank choices with this cylinder and our cases are stock stroke ( 78mm) 1060cc,     +2 , ( 80 mm) 1086cc,         +4 ( 82mm )  1110 cc,     and the beast  +8  ( 86 mm)1180 cc

The new" high wear" sleeves are from L A Sleeve and will contain coated  pistons of a  high wear alloy. On +4 and + 8 cranks , a spacer is installed on top of the head to contain the extra height of the stroker sleeves.  Another included  spacer goes between the cylinders and case . This lower spacer thickness is adjusted to obtain the proper squish for your  engine.

Kit will  includes sleeves , coated pistons and spacers.
