stroker will definately add some hp, but it wont really give you a whole lot of HP difference. What you look for in a stroker is tq...and with any of those three you should gain considerable tq if the heads and cam are matched nicely for what you want.

The ESp Eagle cranks are cast. We can do a forged it is just going to cost a little more.
