heads & cam vs stroker 416
To you guys who did heads and cam, do you feel the need to go stroked as well or are you satisfied.

Depends on what your goals and budget are. I decided to stay NA and went with a 417 stroker. Did a cam and gears before the stroker among other supporting mods. You only live once.

So what exactly is replaced in the LS3 to give it a longer stroke? How does this affect RPM's?

http://texas-speed.com/p-1020-tsp-41...-assembly.aspx What additional is required to complete the install for a stroker (assuming things like replacement gaskets, etc)? Also, that base kit seems to come with a forged crankshaft and connecting rods, but not pistons? |
