Stroker Motor Kits
I am looking for a new or used 351W block. I am planning on making it into a stroker motor. Does anyone know where I can get one of these. Also does anyone know where I can get a stroker kit. I have looked at strokerkits.com and didn't know if there where any others. I am looking for a 1970 mach 1 mustang like my dad had to put the motor into or I might put it in my brother's '84 LTD that he is transforming into a drag racer. Please tell me if those companies have internet addresses.

Is the stroker you are talking about a 428? A friend of mine said that a shop can rework a crank out of a 351M with a 351W block and make about a 428. I have looked for this a bit also with no luck, but will continue to do so. Post if you find anything, as will I.

I've done a bit of research on the stroker kits for 351's. They basically use a 400m crank that's offset ground to the correct stroke. From what I've heard, this can only safely be done to create a 408. Several places will do it to create a 427/428 but I'd be leery, that's a lot of cash to spend on questionable parts. Coast High Performance acually gives you a brand new, custom crank in their kits. They're kind of recognized as the leaders in the field, they started a lot of the Ford stroker kits. Check them out at www.coasthigh.com. They're not really any more expensive then the other places.

im not a spokesperson for paw but, they have a 427 in. stroker kit w/ block, heads, etc. and your choice of comp. ratio,9.0:1-street,10.0:1-street/strip. the only reason i mention this is cause my brother-in-law and i are putting one together for my 70 cougar.(10.0:1-street/strip)
the long block kit was $2995.00 everything is going together well with no trouble, all parts are of good quality and i am pleased so far. cant wait to get to the strip with this monster. the part no. is, #SPBFORW427
i hope this was helpful info for you, good luck, mocky

Has anyone look at the Ford SVO catalog you can get a stroker kit for a 351W all the way up to 454 C.I. But you'd better have a pretty thick wallet...

And they say it's a smog motor..hehehehe

I have used a 4.170" stroke in a 351W so far. I don't know of any other strokes longer than that.
That made 432 cubes at .060 over size.
I know people who are racing the stroker engines, if they are
"hooked up" have broken a main cap after about 12-15 races.
We have gone to installing 4-bolt splayed steel caps. So far no problems.
