question on which stroker size? I've been thinking of getting a stroker motor and am wondering all the differences. I see 383 408 415 428 and so forth. I know in the SBF some sizes had oiling issues as the pin was into the ringland. I'm looking for a good driver not maxed out race. I already have a 6.0 alum motor with LS3 heads, 102 Fast intake and a nice nitrous cam with 2 stage Nitrous Outlet plate. I run 10's na.
I've seen some rotating assemblies that I can buy for my 6.0 which look like a drop in. When do you start clearancing the block or do you even have to? I tried searching but I only see already picked stroker motors but not any differences which one might be better. I know with SBC you start getting into rod angles and length issues as you get bigger. LSX is all new to me. thanks

How do you plan to use the car? The torque comes in nice and early with a stroker (so it's nice in my 3700lb M6 daily driver) but I don't know how much faster you'd be (with a stroker) in light race car with a stalled auto.

I'm leaning towards a 4 stroke since it looks like a good combo. My car is all stock looking with a/c and heat, full interior but stangs are light from the word get go.
