Yes you can swap in a crank from a D17 for added stroke, displacement, and torque but it's not straight forward.

Yes you have to notch the block and deal with a few other issues like the larger crank snout.

You may have to notch the block and with any longer stroke, you're going to need new the corresponding rods for the crank
