stroking the engine has lil to do with boring out only to add about 5-6 cubic inches...if the block is in great shape I see no problems...has the block been decked?

I haven't had the engine apart yet, but people tell me it is a lot safer to have a block .030 over rather then .040 to make it a stoker. 3 engine builders told me this.
