I wouldnt go with a 302 stroker. I read that the clylinder side loading is not worth the extra stroke. it is said to substantialy decrease engine life due to increased frictoin. Not sure about patriot heads. some people claim that the problems they used to have are fixed and others claim they still have valve guide problems. If you can spend a little extra i would get some from foxlake or mmr. when you say stage 3 cams i assume that you mean blower cams. I would go with stage 2s they should be plenty. what are your hp goals? reason i ask is because the KB may not be able to provide that much boost. you might as well get 60lbs injectors. as i believe they are priced the same. jmschip.com has good deals on 60lbs injectors with sct mafs. everything else sounds good.
yea, 60# injectors, sct maf or abaco if your going blowthrough, i would recommend foxlake or mph heads and cams. stage 2 cams will be great. i have stage1 and my power output is pretty good and we are not done tuning yet. i dont think we will make a lot more on this pulley though. you will need a beefed up fuel system so save some cash for that. MPH talked me out of the stroker also. however, i know there are guys on here that have them and they seem to be running good numbers. good luck......im still working out all the bugs.
i had problems with my belt, car running in limp mode, air charge temps, and the blower having a leaky oil seal and blowing the oil throught the intercooler.
all my stuff was brand new and i dorve the car with 502 rwhp for 3 days. all these problems then started to happen.
point is...have some back up cash!
