Anybody running this motor? I see recommendations for the Stage 3 hotcam with the big bore/stroker setup all over. But when it's all said and done, how's the motor? Is it a good all around motor to play with? Play in the woods, on the track, pit ride??? I am in the middle of doing my 06 over, got it all apart, and am pondering on what to do with the motor.. For some reason I like the sounds of the 520. Some feedback would be nice!!!

You have to be careful when choosing pistons with the +3 stroker. I've heard of skirts being too long and hitting the rod. IMO, more reliable power can be gained out of the head.

I have to dig into the bottom end anyway for crank seals, so thought i'd replace the crank while I was at it.. What's a good piston/stroker crank setup?
