I have a 6.0 block im reading that the crank shaft is a good piece. but heres my question the stock 3.622 stroke as compared to 4.000 stroke how much differance does it make? And is it worth if i really plain on building round 500 hp and maybe shooting 150 on Nos? But I am changing rod and pistons and useing ARP bolts. any info is a help thanks

I am still learning about these 6.0's but with a 4.000 stroke it would be a 402 stroker and it would have more torque than a stock stroke. I think. but im just a rookie. But thats what I am trying get info on and trying to build is a 6.0 iron block with a 4.000 bore and 4.000 stroke. L92 heads and a L76 intake and a 100 shot

Good luck

More displacement is always good. Especially on a 6.0 where you can use the 4" stroke and bore to 4.030" and have 408ci. But use N2O. Ricers use "nos".

According to the book LS1/LS6/LS bible of engine building by Christoper P. Ender The 6.0 block crank and I quote" is a very sturdy crank, and has show reliable well over 600 hp"
