Stroker Smallblock cost

djwhog, I love the story about the 273. Had a chance when I bought my Dart to buy a 450hp tunnel rammed dual 4 bbl carbs 273 that would scream right alone, haha. Man am I kicking myself in the butt for not buying it.

Everyone makes a good point, number one a stroker takes plenty of money. Number two, you do need to upgrade the trans, rearend, frame, and chassis for it all to work, or you can run a 10 second 1/4 mile and only thing going to stop you is the sand barrier.

I plan on building a hemi sized small block in the summer. Yes, the big 426 stroker kit for the 360 block. It costs 2,500 just for the kit. I am deciding between Eddys or Indys for the heads and intake. This isnt going to be a street engine though. Yes I will be able to run pump gas if I absolutely have too since I am only planning on 10.5 to 1 compression. I am building this for my Dart in hopes of getting very very very low tens or possibly high 9s next summer.

When ya build a stroker I dont care what it is, if you want absolute power, able to scare people out of bed when you start it up, then it costs money. I love a stroker, hidden power that no one will know. If you need help or anything, give me a PM and I can give you an opinion. Glad to help anyone in any way I can when it comes to a small block!
