DO STROKER KITS REALLY MAKE THAT BIG OF A DIFFERENCE?

- Start date
If I were you, I would have just searched for a nice used Supercharger set and run a conservative amount of boost on a safe tune, and make significantly more power for the same or less money...but thats just me

Man forged bottem ends are very durrable, but the 2Vs dont seem to like RPMs too much and you cant really use the RPM range of the forged bottom end.So unless you plan on SCing it or working the heads, you really dont need a forged bottom but heck if you already have it, keep it.Its nice to have.

Why not?.. It's a bullit, and if mine made 232 that leaves plenty of room with a better intake + leeway from the factory. I swear I have seen some stock 99+ GT's post with 236-238RWH.

Ummmm......
I, too, will have to dish out a healthy case of
on the 246rwhp. For someone that claims to know nothing about mustangs you sure throw out rediculous numbers quick. If I didn't get enough with your first 5 post about THE SAME THING, now I have to look at the contradictions spew forth from your mouth and onto the computer screen again. Congrats man!! You are no longer a tool, but now a Registered Tool.

What in the hell is this guy talking about. You sure arent talking about a Modular OHC motor. These motors are ALL ABOUT RPM. Look at any fast Modular car. Its all RPM.
Please do not post bad tech for newbies. You will really confuse them.

MOGS you seem to know what your talking about, the guy who had the BULLITT before me said it dyno'd 246rwhp, and youve seen the mods ive listed, what do you think of a 95mm PRO-M meter?? And with all these mods how come i shouldnt be able to reach 300 to the wheels, without a cam or headswap?
For hard facts on what a big-bore will do for a modular, check out this thread:

There have been NO strokers that have substanciated their gains anywhere. 5.0 Mustang Mag. did a comparison on big-bore vs. stroker, needless to say, the stroker needed higher compression, better heads, bigger cams and a better intake to make the same power as a mild big-bore. Also, if I felt there was an advantage to a stroker over a big-bore, don't you think I would have put one in my race car.

I'll admit I don't know what the difference is between Stroker and Big bore.. someone wanna elaborate?...
Stroker=Same bore size as stock but the piston travels farther in the cylinder.XtorT'r said:I'll admit I don't know what the difference is between Stroker and Big bore.. someone wanna elaborate?...
Big Bore= Sleeved block with a bore size way larger than stock but the piston travels the same distance as stock.
