You dont need a stroker kit.

Also it's very dangerous to leave a poll open.

but you really dont think i shold stroke the motor out??

i am thinking more that way too... dont stroke it and just have fun with what i have.. there is many children out there with no boost at all and i feel for them greatly.....

Stroker kit definitly not worth the money.

You are way better off getting it sleeved, and just running more boost.

The first thing I would do is inspect the block to see if there are any internal cracks. Many times when there is extreme detonation the outside aluminum that supports the sleeve within the waterjacket cracks and, if this is the case, usually you would need to find a new block. If the block is still good, put new sleeves in it and bring it out to 84mm bore. Put an 1.8LS crank in it and buy our Eagle rods and JE Pistons, and you now have a 2.0 liter. This is an excellent running combination and it still fits under the hood. If you are going to do an aftermarket crank like the Eagle, start with an LS block and bring that out to a 2.2 liter without a deck plate.

In My Opinion,

I would sleeve the block and overbore to 84mm. Eagle rods and Arias/JE/Wiseco pistons.
a job like that rebuilt usually costs about $2900. that will include a new oil pump, bearing and everything to make that block a fresh block.
check out our site and the engine section to see what else it includes.
so for less than $3000 you have a block that can withstand 30lbs of boost and more. just add a few more things such as ARP head studs, and gaskets and for less than $4000 you'll have everything back together installed and ready to go.
