this is probably a dumb question, but is it possible to stroke a 200 with a 250 crank?
strokin?

Not with a US 200 block. There's not enough deck height or camshaft clearance.

that's pretty much what I figured. Thanks for the answer though

I have spent the day stripping down my 200 I6 so I can pull it to be rebuilt.
What amazes me is just how compact the 200 is. It is narrower than my 2.3L 4 banger. The cam has notches cut in it to clear the rod bolts.
There is no room to stroke it at all. I have considered the idea, even to the point of offset grinding the crank and using SBC small journal rods.
There just aint no room.

I am at point where I need either a blue crecent wrench or sawzall. I would have that head off in 30 sec.
I am not gonna have time to get engine out before I leave for Florida Tuesday. I should be back in Indy a week from Today and then I can make plans to egt the help and hoist to get motor out.
