Hi, New to the forum and have a few tech questions. I ended up getting a Wrangler barn find for $400 came with a 78 360 .030 over and a bunch of new parts. New pistons Speed Pro H405P flat top 4 relief cuts. I'm researching builds and wanting to get the best performance I can without tons of money. Here are my plans if they work the new pistons are on stock rods, 4" stroker crank, 96 5.9 heads and Hughes 360 whiplash cam. The only thing not written in stone is the crank. The new pistons have a compression height of 1.637in and I research the stroker pistons the compression height is 1.459in. There is .178in more piston on my set. Would having the 4" stroker crank create a drastic issue with valves and head clearances. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
