RE: Stroke gains?
The '97 4.2L out of the F150 made roughly the same hp levels as the 5.0L. It was rated the highest from the factory out of all the 4.2L motors Ford kicked out for the trucks.
My 4.2L with just heads/intakes portedand a mild cam made 247/256 to the wheels.

What was the 97 rated as opposed to the other years?

I think it was 220 versus the 200-210 other vairous years made.
Tq was between 240-260 within the variations Ford kicked out.
