Im new to the forrum so please dont laugh. Im in the process of doing a rebuild and i was thinking hard about going with a crower stroker kit with JE pistons 11.5:1 or so. It will be a low mileage daily driver but I have heard some negative things about stroker kits concerning engine life. That's why i'm coming to you to lend me some advice and ideas about what to do. I am going all motor so keep that in mind and for right now I would be keeping the stock size pistons due to the downtime of sleeving.

 

to do a stroker kit, i think going pistons and rods with the oem crank will be a better route, the oem crank to take more than a beating and live to tell about it

 

if I did that would I still have my higher rev capabilities and what about doing both bigger pistons withe stroker kit moving it up to a 2.2 liter

 

Just use a LS crank.
