Re: Possible stroker Build

i wanted to build a 347 stroker.. i know its a ford.. but still same concept.. it was bored out .040 already and so next step would be .060.. so that would put it over 347 i know.. so i bored it to .060 and after i did that i got kinda iffy on my decision because the walls were so thin and almost into the water jackets and i didnt want to sleeve it. so i ditched that block and got a nice used block.. bored that out to .030 and i was much happier with that.. it wasnt too bad.. but ya my point here is like the guys were saying.. .060 might run into running hot.. and the stroker kit for my sbf was about 1000 bucks.. and you get keith black pistons and what not
