v6 stroker?

[Tri-Flo 99]

has this ever been done? can you go from 3.4 inch rods to say 4 inchers or anything for a 286 stroker or anything like that, ya know like the v8 guys can do a 383, 422... strokers out of the LS1, i think that would be pretty mean on the street, what about you all?

sorry, i tried a different search, and found the answer is no. sorry for wastin webspace (unless something new has come up, or somebody wants to start a project!?!?!

i dont think it would be worth the money to start a new project like that...

[Arctc Wolf]

nope, not yet buddy. I've been looking at the crap for days. it's do-able, but not worth it in cost.

I was thinkin the same thing... Ud put so much $$ into custom stuff ud come out cheeper doin an LT1 swap w/ a stroker kit(theve really gone down in price)

When you stroke the motor you go with a longer throw crank and a shorter rod. If you just put in a longer rod you'll put the piston through the head. ;)

If you want to stroke your V6 look into getting a custom crank made.. it will cost pehaps almost what your car costs... much $$$$.

What exactly does a stroker motor do? Does it just make the piston go down further?

[Magnus]

There is more piston travel.. yes it goes down further however there is also more throw with the crank... meaning the circle the crank/piston connection travels gets larger.. velocites are increased because of this.

[camaro97]

It also brings in more air fuel mixture b4 its compressed becuase of the increased stroke length...
