I've always been a fan of so-called "undercammed" builds. I built a 416 back about 1995. I dressed it out like a stock 340 including 340 exhaust manifolds and the 340 camshaft. Ported J heads with 2.02 valves, stock 71 cast iron intake and a Demon Sizzler Thermoquad. Put a warmed up 727 behind it with a 3.23 sure grip in an 8 3/4. Stuck it in a 67 Dart GT. That thing had so much bottom end torque it'd scare you. I never got to run it, because somebody wanted it more than I did and offered me way too much money for it. lol
Here's how I see it. If a small bore and stroke would fill all the bills, then why did auto makers make big blocks? That's essentially what you're doing building a stroker, is making a big block. Big block stroke. Trust me. A small cam in one will give you gobs of immediate torque just off idle, right where you want it on the street.
