does anyone know where to get forged stroker cranks from for a 455

 

The only BBO forged stroker cranks that I'm aware of are reground 65-67 cranks. It's possible to gain 1/4" of stroke by offset grinding the throws down to 2" and using Chevy rods. Unfortunately, all this work only gets you back to a 455 stroke. Good luck finding one of the ultra-rare forged 455 cranks. It is possible to weld the crank throws before grinding, allowing a greater increase in stroke. Expect to pay dearly. The alternative is a custom machined billet crank, if you want to drop serious cash.

 

Forgings are getting hard to find, and Billet is getting cheaper. If new forgings are still available, the following three should know where they are.
