Stroker build questions So I have a gto with an ls2 that spun a bearing, I have a stroker kit on the way. 4" crank 4.020 -15cc dish pistons. Should be around 10.4 compression and 406ci. I have ported 243 heads and a torquer v4 cam now (231/234 .629"/.615" 111 LSA).
I 100% will be turboing the car in the next year, but I think I'm going to run N/A until then (the car has been down for a year I want to drive it soon).
I guess my questions is should I switch from my ported 243 heads/ls2 intake to LS3 heads/intake or just switch intakes or does it even matter if I'm turboing.
Second, I know i'm going to need another cam. Any suggestions for a stroker turbo cam?
This is 100% not a daily driver and will be on e85.

Honestly, the stroker will almost be irrelevant if you're turboing it.
I'd stick with everything you currently have, cam included, and get an 80 to 88mm Borg warner clone in a 96mm turbine with a 1.32 A/R T6.
That cam is smaller than the one I'm putting in my turbo 5.3.

2. Get with Cam Motion regarding a turbo-cam to fit YOUR needs and your engine.

The more air and fuel you can deliver the more power and torque its going to make so explain to me why an LS3 top end is a bad choice? Is it given the cam choice he has along with the bore and stroke? It seems to me there's more room for more air and fuel so why not?
