3.6 LFX to 4.6 stroker kit???

Remember guys, KMP said he got it from the Colorado / Canyon forums. That makes sense. They ARE trucks.

Come on Gretchen, you know you want to do this and quad turbo it.

Yeah, I read the whole thread and there is really zero information. Given Trifecta is a tuning company, exactly who is doing the R&D for this? As Jason hinted...a two-letter company?

If I make 726 ft-lb at 3700 RPM now, can you imagine...wait...stop...that's just crazy talk.

If you consider an improved exhaust which most people pay 1-1500 for anyways in the 2000 price range wouldn't be outrageous at all exspecialy considering you get Basicaly no gains from our exhaust systems and this is boasting 30+ rwtq I'm sure engine wear would be much quicker but if your heavily modded already I don't see any harm in shortening the lifespan that much more since you'll be replacing that motor a lot sooner anyways

The tune is what they are claiming the gains on not the stroker.

Figure 4-6k or more to buy the stroker kit, plus install if you can't do it yourself

They are HOT after the Colorado/Canyon market for sure. They are also pretty far into development of a supercharger kit for these trucks, and there is a post on that forum (RT man linked above, where I found the information) about the S/C kit. The kit looks nice enough, I'll give it that.

Yep, this was just some random stuff they threw into a post about a tune to create even more excitement or curiousity (which obviously worked lol).

I have to agree with some of the posts above. This stroker kit looks like it would chance the engine in a torque monster (perhaps?) but wouldn't be much for revving freely any longer. I think going to 3.8 or 4.0 would be the ticket. Not 4.6, but I really have no clue what I'm talking about lol.

Still would be cool to see a stroker kit for this engine.

I have plans working to pick up a second LFX soon. Then I'm going to send it out to a company I can't disclose the name yet. They are planning on turning it into a built 3.9 liter stroker. The heads will be worked as well and they claim they can do something with the cams (at least make it better then the mace cams) yes it won't be cheap. But on a similar style engine they are seeing 50-70 hp and torque gains. Yes this is expensive and yes FI would give better results. But I plan on going FI after most likely IPF and that should REALLY wake the car up.
