4.00 or 4.125 stroke
I see that most everyone is running a 4.00 stroke. How come no one seems to be running 4.125? Is it not as durable? I'm looking at possibly getting the ARE big bore block that can handle the 4.125 stroke. Thanks for any input. I'm trying to learn the whole stroker thing.

Re: 4.00 or 4.125 stroke
Unless you have plans on reving the **** outa your engine (7000+rpm), I would defintely go with the 4.125" crank and get the most cubes you can considering the extra costs are marginal.
I have this crank in my car with a 4.100 bore, which makes 436ci and couldn't be happier. The extra stroke really helps with the torque down low in the RPM as well, which in my opinion is most important for a street car.
