I don't think You need much clearancing unless it has aluminum rods Then you would see it at the bottom of the cylinders..

Thank you for the info. The crank has an 8 bolt flange and I see some minor grinding that has taken place on the inside of the block, looks like they ground flashing off more than clearance marks. I'm new to stroker engines so what should I look for as far as clearance marks go for the crank or as long as it turns freely and does not hit is that all that's needed?
With a 4.15 stroke I dont think you have to notch
the bottom of the bores if you use a chevy rod... so
you might not see anything for clearance grinding

Rock the crankshaft so you can see the pistons stop at BDC and measure away 
If it has the Mopar rod sizes you can have it offset ground to BB Chevy rod journal sizes(2.200) and lengthen the stroke later to 4.25
