Is there such a thing as a stroker kit for the 4.6L 281 motors?

if ya take the stroker crank and put it in to one of the big bore blocks you can get a 323.
it will only cost ya 4 or 5 grand.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/4-6-F...spagenameZWDVW If you want to go high hp this is the way to go. A forged crank alone costs about $600. If you still want more hp (blower or big shot) get these too.

Keep in mind you will have to upgrade trans, rear, and frame connectors too.

Well I was just asking. I've been thinking about SC in the future. What all do you have to do to the motor with say 60k + miles on it inorder to NOT blow it up? I've been told that even with 6-8lbs of boost will throw a rod. The old tymers say "you can't do something to the top and not touch the bottom". Would I need a new cam, crack, and such??
