No motor yet. But I have been considering it and looking at kits. There are some pretty nice forged stroker kits out there for under 3K that will boost cubes up to 300 and give about 40-50 hp to a N/A car. Than if you want to get radical it would be capable of up to 800-900 flywheel hp going with boost. At least that the claims being made.

I stopped by Brenspeed this afternoon. There was a cool blue Mustang out back. Not sure whose it was.
You can't see it in the picture, but there were empty Viagra bottles, a (well used) Judy Garland CD and a can of Cheese Whiz on the seat.

What are you doing up so late? Can't sleep oldman?
And yeah I have considered that option. Only down side is the extra weight of the iron block up front. I think it's like 75 lbs more.

Me ! ...What are you doing up this late?...... I' ve been working late for few weeks, it takes me awhile to wind down so I'm on the computer looking at car parts. I think the stroker kit is a cool idea.
