very interesting! I was told that it's hard to put a crank with a bigger stroke than 86mm. If you say that, I'm going to change my configuration (90mm chevy journal).
who makes such camshafts? do they have any good design for turbo?
How do lifters look like? Do they require modifications of the case?
what kind of rocker arms? pauter?
Humm, how many RPM did you reach with such a crank?

we are developing all the roller components in house, going with a roller camshaft is whats making the 90mm stroke a possibility.
trust me, a 90mm stroke is a challenge, even for us. This engine will have about 300 hours of assembly/prep/design before it ever gets fired up.
We are also developing the rocker arrangement- I got tired of depending on others for parts long ago.

Will you be using a (less expensive) billet Scat one for this or will you maybe ask Scat to make you a 'truly' forged one because of the extremely little overlap of rod and main journals?
R&R rods?
