One thing leads to another... mean 318?

All of that is understood but the reply contains to many what if’s. It adjust the what if’s it becomes a matter of build the engine properly for the goal at hand for the arena your going to be in.

Should an engine be built, stroker or not and the power curve starts high, dips low, rises back up with the rpm, it is ether a tuning issue or the build is off balance. This balance will need to be adjusted via ether the engines bore and stroke to use the parts within better or the parts used within and around the base engine.
IE; Wrong intake, cam to large, etc...

Looking forward to this mystery mans thoughts.
