Which Stroker To Build? I have a 00SS M6.I drag race it weekly, and want to build a stroker motor. My question is , should I build a 382 or go with a larger displacement. The car is my daily driver. Also, Do you think MTI is the place to have it built,and should I let them handle the heads also? The car will be run motor only, no juice. I respect your opinions.

Re: Which Stroker To Build? I would highly recommend MTI's 422 CI if you want a daily driver but also want to drag race all motor. One individual on this board, with 1.5 miles on his motor, ran a 10.89 with a 3700 race weight - all motor on an M6. Of course, we also have Colonel running 9's on his 422 (but in a weight-reduced car with a high stall convertor).
I haven't yet gotten mine to the track, as I do not get the roll cage installed until next week, but I can tell you that this is a sweet setup. A ton of HP all motor, great highway gas mileage, very driveable, and hauls *** when you need it.
As a disclaimer, I will tell you that there are other shops putting together good large cubed setups. But my experience is with MTI, and I can tell you that they are good, and the track times combined with the lack of problems on these setups vouch for how good they are.

Re: Which Stroker To Build? I have been very pleased and AMAZED by my MTI 422. NA 9s and a warranty to boot. <img src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" border="0">
I'll move this to the engine section. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">
