Economical stroker questions
Posted: May 21st, 2020, 10:32 am
Hi there. Noob beating a dead horse here. I picked up a Cherokee with a bad cylinder due to what I think is someone telling their machinist one thing and ordering pistons for something smaller. Anyway, I'm taking the block in next week to see if it can be bored enough to clean up the cylinder. If that doesn't work I'm trying to get another block.
Background aside... I'm looking at getting more power for a little extra cash. Don't want to go crazy with it, but if it's open and I'm already paying $5 I might as well pay $7 for some power. I'm looking at the clegg stroker kit that will set me at about $1000 in parts. I also have an option of doing a basic rebuild with a 232 crank. Does anybody have any other ideas to get some good returns with room for more later for less than that $1000 mark?
I'm already porting the head while I'm waiting for machinist and the rods and crank look to be in great shape along with the head. I was hoping to reuse my can for now if it looks good and upgrade later along with injectors, and so on.

Also, should I have my block decked to help with quench on this kit?
Thanks
