Which 100mm crank ?

Engine has bearing failure and car is on the way to the shop to be opened.

Previous owner has motor stroked to 2.3 with OEM 4g64 crank on Wiseco Stroker pistons and H Beam rods and car made a comfortable 670whp with AMS 850 turbo kit.
All of this was done over 10 years back and I think I should have everything re done while the engine is out.

With soo many options available, I need some advice on which would be better.

I was thinking of
Eagle 100mm forged crank
Wiseco HD1400 stroker pistons
150mm rods - Manley H Tuff or Turbo tuff I beam , any need going I beam if power wont be more than 650-700whp ?

My plan at a later stage is to change the turbo to a GTX3582 gen 2, but for now want to engine to be strong enough.

Should do a 94mm crank. 100mm is less than ideal in the 4g63 block.

Eagle when they're back in stock, or K1 billet. And look and a Garrett G35-900 instead of the 3582.

What rod length would I need on the 94mm crank , 156mm ?

i did think about changing to 2.2L. Seems to be best of both worlds with this.
From what I have been reading it seems the 2.3 seems to have more issues with bearing failure.

Really looking for more reliability, want to car to be able to drive daily without issues.

Other things to look at it would be bigger oil pan and pick up and then looking at the kiggly HLA regulator.

Turbo change will be in a few months, I will run the 850 kit for now until I have more money.

You can run 150MM or 153MM rod with 94MM crankshaft, just that the piston will be different
153MM give you slightly better rod ratio

if you use a 153mm rod then you can use the same piston as the CD will be the same dimension, however the compression ratio is going to drop ~0.5

What is CD? Compression Distance?
Are you suggesting he can use 153mm rod with currently used 2.3 100mm piston, and 94mm crank, but will have 0.5 lower compression ration?
I never thought you could use 2.3 pistons with 94mm crank and 153mm rods.

Anyone using BW / Bridgeway Billet cranks ? What are your thoughts ?

Looking at purchasing a Ross Sport 2.2L kit and they supply BW billet crank with Oliver 153mm rods and Wiseco HD Pistons.
