To stroke or not to stroke

[Poppaluv]

Hi guys,
I need your collective wistom here. In a year or two I will be getting my 425 rebuilt. Iwant to get as much power as I can out of her(headwork , headers) and hopefully the best of everything. I know you can stroke a 425 with 364(?) rods. What displacement , h.p.:af:, torque can generally be had? Exactly what machine work and costs are involved and so on.
Pro's and con's? Wadda ya think?
Thanx in advance:pp

Very interesting 401 to 470 stroker information and pictures here: http://www.buickgsca.com/cgi-bin4/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=nail;action=display;num=1039362789 .

Be careful not to drool - Cheryl :)

For some reason the link above appears to be typed in correctly, but didn't work for me either. But going into the GSCA website the usual way works, and it is a very interesting thread. I did more than drool - it was a heck of a mess to clean up :eek2:

Thanx for the link, it worked fine for me. I've also tried the Yahoo group. It says that it doesn't exist anymore.:mad:
