To the doubters, I have a stroker myself and you can be damn sure I will replace the rod bearings before long.
I couldn't care less how 'fixed' they are due to the stroker. When you spend insane amounts of money you aren't too concerned about a $1k rod bearing job

Do you plan to do anything with the main bearings given they are somewhat of a wild card as well?

There have been very few main bearing failures so I'm less concerned about them in general. In the case of the strokers, the main bearing clearances are modified to the correct ones.

So basically a stroker is like having BE main bearings (which don't exist) installed.

I've actually lost an engine due to main bearings (will be posting the writeup soon) and still won't do main bearings preemptively on my other S65 4.0L.
