Yeah I know, I've seen that page. But do you know of anyone (Forums, YouTube) who has done it and talked about? I wanted to read about it.
Dang, I didn't think a stroker would be that much. Shiz...
Well unfortunately that example is not just simply a stroker crank in a production Coyote block. That has an aftermarket sleeved block which means big $$$. Also it's a custom billet crank and billet rods, so once again big $$$.
Wow, that's actually not bad, comparatively. Crazy how their 5.8L Stroker block is 15k though.
Ford should offer us a new Boss with a modern 460 Big Block!
But... But... Big blockI'm sorry sir, that money was spent on the Mach E. j/k...j/k
That's a cool deal, but if you look at it, just going over bore alone gives you 0.2L. Even cheaper to make yourself a 5.2L Cross Plane Coyote. Plus overboring is easier on the rotating assembly than stroking.
Yeah .
That's really the one bad thing about the Mod motor in general - they are already "stroked". Ford had to do it to remain competitive with GM, but at the same time digging their heels, refusing to retool Romeo to accommodate a larger bore center. Larger bore = larger valves. Longer stroke really puts the hurtin' on everything because it drastically changes the acceleration of the piston. Plus, it throws off the rod to stroke ratio, and scuffs the crap put of the cylinder sides and pistons. To fix that, you gotta run a deeper skirt, which makes the piston heavier and more friction, and like you said, you basically get to the point where the piston almost falls out of the cylinder.
