Build Yourself A 500HP Chrysler For $5,000*
|
Our LA tour of power (not to rip off sister magazine Hot Rod) began with a trip to JMS Racing Engines in El Monte, California. Owner Mike Johnson patiently gave us the lowdown on these engines and was the first to tip us off to the stroker being the hot-ticket build. In fact, he's packaged up a stroker combination for LA engines to sell on eBay. The kit includes either a Scat or Eagle crank, H-beam rods, and forged pistons, plus all the required rings and bearings. Johnson said the majority of kits he sells are for 318s, which we found odd until he told us that, in a 318 block, this combination adds up to 390 ci. He sells these things all day long for $1,495, and Johnson says owners can expect 75 to 85 lb-ft more torque with the extra stroke. View Related Article
