What are your stroker specs, and will you have other performance bolt ons such as a cold air intake, larger throttle body, header, and free flowing exhaust?
More information would be helpful but if you click on the "stroker recipes" link in my sig, you'll get a pretty good idea.

Mine put down 200rwhp @ 4700rpm and 258rwtq @ 3500rpm. That's 246hp & 311lbft at the crank.

You're using the block from an 04' correct? That's a 328 block, which is the strongest. The fully counterweighted crankshaft can handle up to 1000 HP. I know Newcomer doesn't build anything over 400 HP with the lightweight, 4 counterweight crankshaft.

Stock rods would have to upgraded to forged over 300 HP. Pistons you would be replacing anyway. Over 300 HP, it should go without saying that all parts of the valvetrain need to upgraded.
