My thoughts exactly. I went for the head work, big valves and flowed the
2-piece exh and the intake bigtime. Can do a lot for $2500 cost of the
stroker kit. I investigated this in detail. At the time I talked to Eurorace
the stroker cranks were re-welded 5-cyl crank -- NOT stock Eurovan cranks
and the price for the kit was $2500.....   The welded crank scared me as
well as possible reliability issues due to the longer stroke, etc, etc. I
went with the stock stroke and MAX cyl bore for larger displacement with
custom Arias pistons. The Arias are 100 grams lighter Vs stock even with the
larger diam!   :)
