The bigger the better. If I were to build a stroker motor, it would be in the 434 range. If I am going to do it, I want to do it well. The money for me, is the stopper.
I regret building my stroker.
If i were to do it again, 355....more revs, way more parts, and cheaper parts.
Rings for a stroker compared to a regular 355 is like 3X the price.
Thats only my opinion anyways....
I mean dont get me wrong, stroker for street use rules!!!! Lotsa torque at all RPM....but racing, i would do a 355 & rev that biatch!
