im trying to take as much input as i can get before i build my motor. i saw some numbers on a 351ci l motor "stroked" i was wondering what are the advantages and dis, about a stroked motor the more info the better:read:
DON'T
Hows that for advice. The 5.4 already has the longest stroke of ANY production motor. Including the old big blocks. In fact a lot of poeple in mustangs destroke them for racing applications. The motors already have tremedous side loading on the bore wall and piston speed is already high on these motors. Just use H-beams in the standard length a good set of pistons and the stock block and crank and invest the money in the heads amd bigger blower.
Parts are available, look into some custom pistons with offset pins to deal with the increased side load of a longer stroke. ;-)
No need as far as HP or no need as far as start up noise?
arguably, there is a replacement for displacement.
BOOST.
I asked about a stroker build about 2 weeks ago...
