V8 Strokers??
I did a little search and couldn't find anything within the past few years. I did see the thread started by MVP. Are they the only ones that build a stoker block for the 4.0/4.3? I am curious what a nice stroker block along with some worked over heads would put out.
no....check for lextasy and caowboy...
i think the last time i looked a good stroker motor fully assembled was in the 30k range though making about 600+ NA hp. its not cheap and IMHO more feasible to do a LS swap

Holy *****. Yeah if they are gonna run that much I may have to look at an off brand swap. I'd rather keep it all Lexus but that is a bit pricey. Maybe I'll have to look in to doing the labor myself. I have seen used short blocks going for a few hundred.
here is a old thread we were talking about building motors

for example here is a kit cowboy posts on another thread
JUST the stroker kit was 15k, dunno if thats shipping included or not....then u have labor to build/install

i would LOVE to have a stroker NA v8 but its just not cost efficient with the lexus motor.....
i was looking into building my heads awhile ago and it was gonna cost me like 4-5k with cams,springs,retainers,valves,head studs,etc etc...i was like um for that kind of $ i will pull it and do a LS2 swap.....so i bought my mounts from mike for the swap

Yeah I noticed his ID was banned. Probably not be talking to him. Maybe I will drop a Coyote 5.0 in to one. =) FRPP sells the harness and computer for swaps. With a 6 speed auto it should be pretty nice.
anyone want a stroker kit? :3

Ok this is looking a little more promising. This company does have a forged option. At $7800 I wouldn't say it's a deal by any means but it's half has much as the other kits.

I am guessing the expensive part is the crank. Rods and pistons can be custom made to about any size. Still researching.....

I've contacted a local engine builder that specializes in Lexus/Toyota stuff. Will see if they have any ideas to keep cost down. If not I may be stuck with doing some forged internals and a pair of turbos. Will see what comes of it.
