thanks man this is what I wanted, now I guess all you have to do is figure the bore if it was to be bored and you are in business, later.

4.8 stroke-3.26
5.3, 5.7, and 6.0 use the same stroke-3.62

BTW, in NO way is a 4.125" crank recommended for a 4.8/5.3 block. I don't know how far you can bore a 4.8/5.3 block(stock bore is 3.78"), but a 3.85" bore and 4" crank would get you 372ci.

Use a 6.0 blocked bored .030 over with stock crank and rods. If you are going F/I use forged rods and pistons with the stock crank. Much cheaper than the 4.8. You save on the crank and all the headaches of making a stroker that big work with the 4.8 block.

You need to get your block sonic tested to see if it has enough material to safely go to the necessary 3.9 bore.
