A stroker 408 build?

Hey all, Well.... While making a trip to the machine shop to have my rear axle studs put in.... I start talking to the machinist/owner.. Turns out to be a mopar guy. :grin: We start talking and he tells me he can make a stroker 408 out of my 360 for $3K... $2200 for the rotating assembly and about $700 for the machine work.

Is this an average price?

What has to be done to make a stroker 408? Is it a strong performer? I'll be using the car for bracket racing and street driven to local car shows.

What Carb, intake, cam works for this setup? It would be put in a 73 Duster, 727 reverse pattern 4200 converter, 4.11 rear.

Should I do this eventually for the money? Or stay with the 360?

Let's here some opinions/ thoughts. Thanks all.
