DX based Stroker Cranks
Looks like this has become a new project of mine.
I had a couple of people contact me over on Facebook requesting me to do a large main small block stroker crank that will drop right into the DX block.. It seems this is moving forward. Price will be about the same as the gas based Stroker cranks, around $1850.00. These will be a great alternative to using the 50 year old 400/425 crank or buying a much more expensive custom billet at a cost of over 3k.
Let me know if anyone may be interested as these will take 4-5 months to get.

Mains, seal surface, flange, and snout are all Olds dimensions. Rod journals are SBC/LS so there’s a ton of rod choices. I currently sell a crank, rod and piston package that yields about 9.8-10.0:1 with bb or aftermarket heads. And yes I need a majority deposit upfront as these are a deviation from what I’ve been doing already.
Let me know Joe. Thanks.

DX has the thickest main webbing of any Olds block. Lifter bores are .921. However all cyl thickness is about the same as none are siamesed.
