That is impossible to say for sure. I would say it would depend how you drive it and how the tune is. I have read about blocks handling more that 600hp with good tune but with anywhere near that much power your going to break something sometime. I would recommend if your going to build a stroker motor, get a stronger block so that you don't have to worry about replacing it all if it splits a block.
You can find a Mexican block for around $300. You may be lucky and never have a problem but why take the chance. ------------------ James Cox nochevy@hotmail.com 1991 Mustang LX |
