Searched and couldn't find too much info on the details of stroking. At least not on this site, though a few pop up windows offered places to go.
My question is, has anyone stroked the 5.0L with out boring and replacing pistons. I know it's a "While you're at it" but to keep cost down is there a way to keep the 5.0L bore and just add stroke? Just wondering if you can do it for the cost of the crank, new rods and balancing with out the block prep, boring, pistons etc?
I ask because I might have a line on a scat crank for about $1200. I can swing a little more for rods and balancing. I can't swing the full blown stroker right now. Thinking a mini stroker would still be better than a stock 5.0L.
For the cost of doing a full stroker correctly, I could put a new pool in the yard... But if I can get away with a mini stroker for under $4K, I'm in like Flynn. Just testing the waters before I put my Hybrid back together. BTW if I can do a stroker it will be with the Euro S top end...
SOmeone please edumacate me.
