Dave that's funny, but that is exactly what these two brothers said back in the late 70's - early 80's where i grew up in denver. tony richards and his brother were building strokers long before there were kits for them. i don't know if they just used off ground cranks, but they were building 511's as early as 78-79, somewhere in there. wicked engines, for the day.

The way I see it is that the added cubes will add torque in huge amounts down low and mid rpm where you feel it and need it most when your trying to get the car moving as quick as possible. Strokers will make peak HP a little sooner due to the long arm.

I left mine stock stroke because it was the first one I really "built" and wanted to see what I could do with it. It hauls but I wish I stroked it. I remember when you had that car at Marcus Dairy in Danbury with a 484 Purpleshaft in it Scott. I think it was running high 12s and I remember being really impressed with that then Now I need to pin those needles, got to feel that heat Hear my motor screamin while I'm tearin up the street

With over 600 ft lbs of tq..Id be real curious of the street/strip reliability or was it just a build for dyno number junkies... 1972 Road Runner / GTX 440 4spd Dana 3.54 Just about to turn 26K original miles.. A boat, a GMC truck, some Craftsman Tools, LOTS of Zombie Protection, and a few Goldfish.. If you love someone set them free.. If they come back it means nobody else wanted them either..!!
