I'm guessing the only time the gas pedal won't be mashed into the carpet is at idle......but how about MPG info anyway.

Larry,
I'm still very curious to know if you can get a stroker crank for the 3.9 v6. I remember that you had 2 made, and sold one, but I haven't heard anything else about them. IF you could shoot me an email, or point me in the right direction for getting in contact with you about one of these, I'd greatly appreciate it. Email is nafarious33@yahoo.com

This is a customer who lives in AZ in the winter
and in wisconsin in the summer
we did the motor and he went to az he should be
up here soon
I was just in the right place at the right time
at my crank guys shop when the local off road
racing team we do all there paint work was there
and had 6 cranks made and I got 2 of them they
had to have 6 billits turned on a lath than sent
to the grinding shop to be finished ground and
ballanced they only wanted 4 but the machine shop
would not run them unless there was at least 6
You can get a kit fron strokerkits.com it comes
with the crank, rods, bearings and pistons each
is custom made and takes 6 months from them to
get the pistons can be made for any comp you
want I got my pistons and rods from them
The motor has to be around 200/280 at the wheels
I have not heard from bob for over a month some
times he gets up here late and stays untill nov
Last tme he called all was great he just loves
the new motor crusing 70 80 mph on the roads
he says are as smoth as ribbions out there and
getting over 20mpg
by the time he gets here it will probably have
10,000 miles on it.
I have known this guy for ike 22 years for the
last 5 years I have been trying to buy this
94 dak from him it looks like it just came off
the show room floor kept telling me he would
think about it than last summer instead off
getting a new truck we sat down and talked and
he decided to do the motor to make it more fun to
drive, this truck has been making this 2200 mile
trip back and forth since 1994 he said its just
so reliable now he did the motor he plans on
keeping it anothe 10 years
dang I should have come up with a better plan
thought the cost would deture him and sell me
the truck but it backfired and he spent the
money built the motor and now me buying the
truck went right out the window

gaskets bearings rings pistons oil pumps and
the best price for new lifters you will find
anywhere $100 the price at chrysler is like $28.50
