The stock crank will likely handle whatever you are planning but IMO the answer to this should depend on your budget as much as anything.
With 4.11 gears you can't be aiming for that low an ET unless you have an aftermarket computer too that will let you spin to very high rpm.
Do you have the money to do the topend well and still buy a stroker crank. Good heads are more important than a little extra stroke.

Why spend an extra grand for 5 more cubic inches? Save that money and spend it somewhere else, like forged connecting rods and pistons. Also like 96 said heads are more important then a little more stroke.
