Default Help Me Decide

I Just Heard From The Machine Shop......(spun 2 Rod Bearings)

To Put The Motor Back To Stock With A Crank Kit And Mahle Pistons......with Balancing And All The Labor 2300.00

Then With Machining The Block For Stroker Kit And All The New Parts From Eagle And Federal Mogul And Balancing 3400.00


What Would You Do???>

If you can afford it, forge it with a 383 and some aftermarket heads and cam. That would have some nice power and could handle another 150 shot easy

with the stroker its all about the touque but you should be able to get around another 50 to the ground vs stock cubes, maybe not quite that much but give or take depending on your h/c
