Hi All,
Im really coming up short with info at the moment and wanted to know if i can use an F8B crank in an F5A to make a stroker? Any help would be great before i rebuild a standard 550.

If you want to make a stroker then offset grind the standard F5A crank. But to be honest unless you're doing all the work yourself as a hobby then the F5A is a complete money pit for mods.

Sorry to discourage your efforts, I just know that you could drop a lot of money into a 550 and still not make as much power as a standard F8B. ;)
