340,to stroke or not to stroke

I think if you are going to build, you might as well stroke it...If you can't build a stroker, what makes you think the stocker is going to stay together...The stocker has more chance of coming apart than all aftermarket parts...well, good ones!..LOL...I would say build the 340...416 verses a 408...hmmm...Cubic inches...Actually, bore the 340 .060 over..4.100 bore and get that 422 cu. in...still streetable...or don't buy any of them off the shelf pieces, because they have a bad rod angle...Stroke the crank to 2.100 chevy journal, buy off the shelf chevy rod (longer), call ross get the piston you need,,,waaallaaa...you've got a stoker w/ better rod angle, less cyl. wall drag & will out run the off the shelf boys and way less likely to come apart when you start twisting it 6000 to 8000 rpm....Lee
