i read in a magizine where they took a 302 and strocked it to 347 and used the cam -heads intake and then dyoned it ..it was 100 hp more..so with better heads and little more cam it may be over 150 hp more than a regular 302...

stroker kits increase bore of the cylinders and lengthen the stroke of the crankshaft which increases the cylinder sizes of the engine.
the displacement of the engine is the total volume of air pushed out from all the cylinders when the piston is moved from the bottom of the stroke to the top of the stroke
the larger the engine displacement, the more air/fuel mixture can be burned in the engine and the more power it can make.
