[DeTomaso] To stroke or not to stroke

[Dan Courtney]

Guys,

I'm looking at options for The Winged Warrior's 5th 351c. For another grand or so I can get an Eagle stroker kit with I beam rods and such. This would take the Cleveland out to 393 cubes or so.
I don't know if it's good for the intended application, a good street / road car, low rpm torque and power.
Also, given the problems I've had with the valves and pistons making unauthorized contact, I don't think I want the pistons lifting any higher.
What do y'all think?

Dan
