VY 3.8L
Hey everyone, Idk if you’ll be able to answer this but anyway. I’m building an L67 atm that I’m going to drop into my VY. I am putting a stroker kit (changes it to a 4.2L) in it and a stage 2 cam, gonna be running 11psi through the supercharger with pacemaker extractors and full exhaust and getting my ecu based tuned then put it on the dyno. Could anyone give me a rough idea on how much horsepower (at wheels) I’d be looking at with these modifications??
Thanks in advanced

I don't have time to calculate a guesa atm I will when I get off the bus. But the stroker kit is a waste of money as you don't need it.

Yeah no worries. Why is the stoker kit a waste of time out of curiosity?

You'll make somewhere around 220rwkw is my guess @3.8l.
The price of the stroker will end up around 5-6k including all the machine work you would be better off just turbo charging if you don't already have a L67.
with the 4.2l kit you'll be over 250rwkw would be my guess, maybe up towards 260-270.

For less money you can turbo and make 350kw.

Okay cool thanks. The only reason that I’m thinking of going to stroker kit is because the were slapping a bit in the motor so I thought go a stroker. Mace engineering have some for sale around the 1.8k mark just the cranks and pistons, is that still worth wild still buying??
And the other reason why I don’t turbo it is because I’m a P plater so this is still going to be illegal enough for me to drive but might be able to hide it a bit‍

Yeah I’ve got the L67 striped it down it’s ready for the clean up and rebuild now

I would just rebuild it as is.

Watch that and learn.
