OP.
The question about the different type of strokers in the 2.8 range. How hard do you want to turn this thing? Realistically, with low mounts (with reasonable sized cams) they will be all said and done by 8-8500 RPM anyway. A semi counter kit like a Tomei will do the job more than adequately. If you have coin to burn then choose your poison. Will you notice any difference, probably not.
