I don't know a lot about strokers, but do know that it is a way to increase displacement and volume within the bock. Now what exactly is involved in turning a 302 small block into a stroker and is it recommended? What type of cost should you expect for turning a 302 into a stroker? I understand that their may be some machining that needs to be done by a shop, but how much can be done by a home mechanic with a little bit of experience can do? I appologize for the stupid question and thanks for any responses in advance.
