That would be kick *** because then youed have a 351W.

Ford Racing needs to release a 5.4 block with a 3.7" bore. The Boss Modular block which is a 4.6 with a 3.7" bore to = 5 liters was made by Cleveland so if they made a 5.8 Modular block then you'd have a 351 Cleveland block FTW!

Here's all the info I was able to find out on it.

EDIT: Also got PM'ed this on the topic.
You really can't do the iron 5.4 block in a 3.7" bore. The Ford GT block would need Darton sleeves at $100 per cylinder plus labor almost that again. That only leaves the Sean Hyland aluminum 5.4 block as being able to be used. Unfortunately, they are expensive, but check around, if you really want one, they are available.

How long of a stroke does a 5.4 stroker crank have?

Just curious as a 5.4 already has an extremely long stroke.

the long one is enough to get 6.2 liters out of a stock block, yeah it's long but they offer a shorter one too

but they claim that people use in in the normal 5.4 rpm range

one is a 4.415
the other is a 4.350

as seen here
