    Good for a more "exotic" VS HSV, but the strokers are crap. If you just want one for the power, you might be better off getting a decent stroker kit from C.O.M.E or something like that and stroking a stock 304 block or something.

    But if you like them overall, definantly buy one. They are real nice.

    Don't get me wrong, they still get up and boogy, they are no slouches that's for sure, especially with a 6 speed manual box, but for even better power out of a 355, a C.O.M.E racing 5.7 stroker kit for instance, would see you with better power figures and feel.
