De-stroke a 2.0L...that'd be awesome
Stroker kits for domestic are fairly foolproof... as long as you get them accuratley balanced. The biggest problem with them is they change the geometry of your bottom end.. piston to rod angles and rod to crank angles can become severe putting undue loads on the rods/crank journals.
As for block machining, I was able to go from a 4" crank to a 4.25" crank without machining the block at all... increasing my displacement a whopping 35 cubes
The motor stills wings right up to 7 grand. A lot of the negatives you hear are just that. Hearsay

stroker kits will last just as long,they run at lower rpm ranges compared to a stock engine or destroked engine.but then u throw cams in the mix and it changes your rpms around depending on the grind of the cam,but if u want more low and mid end tq go with it if your looking to rev the shit out of it and want more h.p in your high end destroke it.it really comes down to what your are looking to do with the car that the engine is going in.
