RB had a square stroke engine once upon a time .. not sure if they still do.....
the only short stroke engine i know off is the Vspec VZB.. and other makes of it...
Thank you very much for the reply. I think you are right, the only reason why I even asked the question was because of a labeling discrepancy and different part numbers which distinguish between shortstroke shims for N21bf or similar and longstroke shims for P5 and similar. It could just be a parts number/name oversight but I figured I would ask the question anyways.
The shims I want to use are labeled for a N21R and I will be putting them on a P5XLT. If my memory serves me correctly I think they may actually share some parts like case and the like so I don't think it should be a problem.
