Does this sound about right for a RB25 stroker setup?

RB26 crankshaftRB26 Wiseco pistons 87.5mm, 8.25:1 comp, 1.181" compression heightEagle ESP H-Beam rods with ARP boltsACL Calico coated Main Rod, End Bearings RB25RB25 Block bored to 87.5mm

Havent figured out the head work yet.

Am I missing anything? Or am I using a wrong part? Thanks

True its not much of a stroker, but ill get some more dispacement from the 87.5mm pistons vice the 86mm stock. Thanks for the bearing info. Anyone personally done this or something similar that I can contact when I run into a problem? Cause im sure I will.

why don't you go with 8.5:1 or 9:1 CR....you'll get a more responsive motor instead. with your 87.5mm bore, you 're getting closer to maybe 2.7L stroke.
