Almost no lag, but still has a descent top end
thats kinda what i was thinking. it would have a mean 2000-6000 rpm band and should still make tons of power. i told the guy i wanted 650-800hp (low and high boost)and he said that should be fine with either motor the 370 or 402. i understand a 370 has the big bore and i can use the same heads but it seems these days a crank isn't much more after buy all the other parts. you can get a callies kit for pretty cheap.

i figure it this way i could crank the boost on a small motor and make XXX power or i can have low boost on a big motor and have the same power. i don't want over 2 bar (14.7 here at sea level) and the smaller motor will have to go over the 2bar. i say that because with my ecu my fueling table with a 3bar setup is stupid. the ve table doesn't get bigger the accuracy just gets worse from 2 to 3 bar.

but my question is, with the stroker cranks have they fixed the oil burning issues it seems some guys have? i heard some blocks with shorter skirts have oil burn issues but other blocks with longer sleeves don't . which is which and is it true?
