Stroke it baby.....

Ole Yeller · July 6th, 2007, 09:30 AM

Well i got to lookin around at a few things the other night and stumbled across Mr Morana's site and i was hoping you guys could help me out in determining what and why someone would buy a few of these things...

the 4.0L stroker kit: mainly just purchased for it's forged internals?? but lighter and stronger internals get you set up for a nice FI application. partner that with a stage 2 power pak from SSMS and your pretty much ready for a turbo or supercharger set up?

thanks!

Ole Yeller · July 6th, 2007, 09:41 AM

also, if i went with the 4.0L stroker, would machine work still be necessary?

94v6blkndred · July 6th, 2007, 11:06 AM

once everyone wakes up youll be set with some info hahah ive looked at 4.2 stroker kit myself so this a good question for more than just you haha

Ole Yeller · July 6th, 2007, 01:23 PM

damn sleepin bastards... ha ha ha. i know i don't want to go 4.2... just seems to much involved. but doing a lightweight forged internals 4.0 swap doesn't seem that bad....

just want to make sure i have all the info.

itschristorres8 · July 6th, 2007, 02:40 PM

4.0 is kinda pointless....might as well just get forged internals for your 3.8

stage isnt the best application for a turbo or s/c set up
your better off getting stage 3 and depending on which application turbo or s/c it'll help you know which cam to get

Ole Yeller · July 6th, 2007, 02:43 PM

i'm at 3.9 already, i figure if your going to re-do things why make a lateral move? at least some increase is some increase.... it'll depend on cost at the time, lightweight and forged and more displacement IMO is better than lightweight and forged the same.... that is unless going to 4.0 will require extra machining...

about going stage 2...everything is going to be coming in packs...in other words if i get stage 3, then it may be a period of time before i get FI.... so i want something i can run one without issues until i get there.

what are the effects of going stage 3 without FI? would it still be decently streetable?

Ole Yeller · July 6th, 2007, 02:44 PM

sorry for double, it wouldn't let me edit for some reason...

also i have an auto

itschristorres8 · July 6th, 2007, 02:45 PM

none at all. more power lol

im pretty sure 4.0 piston wont fit with out a bore or stroked block to a 4.0...

how much money you got?
i know a SWEET deal lurking around that for under $2k you can get stage 3 heads and a vortech s/c
if it wasnt cause i was going turbo i'd take the deal
and if iwasnt cause i need the money for other shit for the turbo i'd take the heads in a heart beat

Ole Yeller · July 6th, 2007, 02:50 PM

hmm...

then i'm confused why they only recomend the stage 2+ if you have a stall converter and stage 3 if your nitrous or FI...

also the stage 2 is about ohhh $800 less... ha ha

so who does the forged for the 3.9? everywhere i see only says 3.8. now granted i know most of the engine parts are the same between the 2, however when it comes to internals one is a 3.9 and one is a 3.8 for a reason...

itschristorres8 · July 6th, 2007, 02:52 PM

3.8s will work...idk why i think the 4.0 will too..i think im havin a brain fart

Ole Yeller · July 6th, 2007, 03:03 PM

damn ford and decided they needed an extra .1L for a few months....

Onemanzu · July 6th, 2007, 03:19 PM

i believe that you don't have to do any machine work dude... its just longer rods and a bigger crank

4.0 would be okay nothing to big or crazy but would take to a charger really well

i deffinitly had a brain fart then...i knew i was wrong with something

Onemanzu · July 6th, 2007, 03:49 PM

omg chris = wrong!! no way!!

yea no its just different sized parts... you wont have to look into machining until you get up to 4.4 ish on the 3.8 block... or if your block is beat up then you can get it machined so that the compression will be way better

lol i never say or will say i know it all..an you know that

i dont promote when people call me the know it all...clearly cause i dont know it all
some area's im not to sharp on. like auto trannys...i couldnt tell somone where to find a torque converter and how much power its good up to.
and i know you know about over heating lol

i know some but i dont know as much as you do i bet. ive never been in that situation

itschristorres8 · July 6th, 2007, 04:02 PM

ive been proven wrong HORRIBLY on this site
there was a procharger v6
sounded like a turbo completely!
i wish i could find the video....i said it was turbo then argued and was proven it was s/c'd

i'll find the video

Ole Yeller · July 6th, 2007, 04:47 PM

YES!! it was my question that proved Chris wrong!!~ HA HA HA!!!

El_Cangri · July 6th, 2007, 09:19 PM

itschristorres8 · July 7th, 2007, 12:25 AM
