 Subject: Stroker 318 to 390. In a 3.9L??
IP: Logged
Message:
Can I put a 318 to 390 stroker kit in the 98 3.9L?? The 3.9L is just
a sawed off version of the 5.2L. So can i get the kit and just not use
some of the parts or is there a better solution to get more
horsepower and torque. Any answers or suggestions would be
much appreciated.

Crank will be too long. Without the stroker crank, you don't have a stroker.
Lead, follow, or get out of the way

I don't think it was a good point at all; but if you really think he had a good point - then I guess you should go ahead and try it. Let the other guys know how you make out. Experience is the best teacher for some...

Thats a pretty funny idea when you know the details of how an
engine works. I can see where you'd get the idea that it might
work since people always say that the 3.9 is a 5.2 missing two
cylinders, but that wouldn't work. You would be able to use the
same rods and pistons from the stroker kit, but you'd have to find
a crank made specifically for the 3.9. I haven't heard that anyone
makes them. You're better off just building a V8 to put in your
truck.

If you go to hughesengines.com They have a tech report on getting the strocker kit from the for the 3.9. would cost somewhere in the neighborhood of 2 grand. I was thinking about it but just not enough funds. hope this helps

thats another great idea however those cranks are so hard to find and expensive to get one in good condition it would work much better than cutting a 5.9 crank since a v12 would be balanced naturally.
