Anyone who has actually had a stroker built knows this is pure bullscrap. Pistons from Mahle Motorsport? That will be 12 weeks please. A balanced stroker crank? Give it another 12. Honing and boring the block? Can only be done after you have the pistons. Etc etc etc

Buy the parts ahead of time? LOL. The working capital needs would be epic
How many RB services were on S65 approximately?

The only RB poll on this forum seems to be for original owners-34 participants-1RB failure. Too bad there isnt a public VIN specific database for RB service/failures.

(3000 RB services at 8 hours each /8 work hours a day /365 days a year =8.2 years)
