Stroker kits go from about $800-2200, now for the machine work you will pay $150 or so if you do it yourself to 2k or so if you have a shop do it and some shops will charge less during these hard times.

You can buy a stroker kit, cast-iron stroker crank, cast hypereutectic pistons, reconditioned 350 rods, moly rings, and a new flexplate, as well as camshaft, rod, and main bearings cheap. I would at a minimum take the new parts to a GOOD machine shop and make certain they are in fact balanced. Summit Racing will have everything you need. My advice though is build it once, build it right then beat the **** out of it. I would build a better bottom end so you can upgrade it later with nitrous or a blower etc. There will never be a better time, Good Luck

3K-4K is not out of line for quality stuff. This is like asking how much is a metric wrench set 8mm-19mm. There is no simple answer a cheap set is $8.00 a decent set $40.00 a good set $200.00 and a top of the line set is $400.00+ You get what you pay for. Price a DragonSlayer crank, JE forged pistons GOOD Stuff you'll be suprised.

So true. Speed,make that horsepower, costs money. How much do you want? You can buy a very nice kit for as little as $800 that will be fine for cruising and an occasional rundown the track. You can pay $10,000 for a bullet proof build if you are into serious racing. Before you spend a nickle on hard parts spend $20.00 on "How to Build Big-Inch Chevy Small Blocks" by Graham Hansen available through Car Tech. Will give you a very good insight into what is out there and what to do with it.
