If I'm not mistaken the 850 block has additional webbing to handle the extra
load of the bigger CC's. I'm not an expert but would the V700 block handle
the 850 jugs and crank?

Thanks for correcting me, David...I wondered where the stroke difference
was made up - makes sense now that I think about it.

conn rods are all the same 700/750/850 700/750 cranks are the same, 850

crank has longer stroke, the stroke difference is compensated for in
the pistons.

Hi Andy,

I believe that the con rods for the V700 and Ambo are
interchangeable...least wise they have the same stroke (70) and only
differ in the bore (80 vs. 83). I believe that the Eldo con rods are not

interchangeable because the stroke was increased to 78 (bore remained at

83). I don't believe there are any differences in the crankshaft that
would affect the con rods. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm
mistaken. Good luck.
