opinions on stroker kit?

it all depends on the weights of the rest of the rotating assembly.

Price is not always the best bet for parts - in general -

I spent a little more for rods, bu they didnt need any work at the shop - same with the crank - sometimes if you cheap out and the rods or crank need to be worked on at the shop it cancels out your cost savings.

Thats knowledge and experience right there. I learned my lesson once, tried to save $90 or so on a set of pistons. Then to get compression ended up cutting block, heads, which meant intake milled and custom pushrods. I think saving $90 on pistons cost me $380 or so.
