Well due to the fact that my car is my only car I try to keep downtime to as little as possible
Now let's say that I go the stroker route (331 or 347) and want to use my stock block. I tear it down remove the rotating assembly and have the block. I would get the block bored .030 over by a local machine shop. Is their anyway that I could get an engine builder (like Rick91GT) or someone proficient with strokers and does them on 5.0L's as a living to setup up the rotating assembly (rings gapped/oil ring placement) like it needs to be or do they need the block to do that. I thought it would be ideal to have the rotating assembly all prepped up and then just have someone install it. Does that compremise the reliability of the engine or is the install just an install. Would the "pro" need the block?
I hope this made sense...thanks for any ideas
