Default 383 stroker kit

Thinking about getting a stroker kit, good idea or bad idea. There is one in Summit for $1,099.95. What would I have to do to my 350 to support this? Or does someone know of a better kit. How is the one that PAW makes?

I built one of these once upon a time. I had no clearance issues, but you'll need to check for clearance with the crank throws to block casting and possibly do a minimal amount of relief grinding. Some blocks apparently will need this, but I got lucky. Good luck to you, tom
