This discussion highlights the fact that you need to talk to your engine builder about how he builds your stroker. By design, if built and cammed right it should be plenty torquey...enough to pull you out of the 2k/70mph hole if you go with 3.50/.64. But as you say, you gotta pick your cruising band and plan your setup from there. Don't listen to me either, I didn't plan diddly squat where this is concerned>>>>During my build I found a brand new still-in-the-box .64 TKO 600 on Craigslist for $1000 and made what my wife commonly characterizes as an "impulse spend."
