so do you think the stroker kit would be a good feel...

What's the status of your engine in the car now? You can run 7's with stock parts. Heck you can run in the 7's with a all stock engine.

Timing chain, valve springs, oil pump mods, new oil pickup that's not full of timing teeths and then beat the shit out of it.


There's many dead Buicks in the wake from people that wanted to do just what you're wanting to do.

Check your static compression, I prefer about 135 psi minimum, but others will run 116 psi and be happy. Cut open your oil filter and check for any debris. If satisfied do what earl suggests. Personally I would only consider a reputable buick builder if it becomes nescessary to rebuild, then I would think seriously about the stroker.
