Stroke is easy to measure. Take a plug out and stick a rod inside on top of piston. Measure movement top to bottom and compare to stock.

Help Support VMAX Forum:
In this revived thread, here's a European stroked crank I saved a pic of, awhile ago. It can allow 1724cc total bore & stroke. I suspect the cost of this work is > any valuation of any VMax I may have had!
My machinist friend did these VMax heads using Suzuki cam followers for 1508cc.
The machinist does it 'old-school.' He started his career working as a machinist for Crane Cams, where his dad also worked as a machinist. He went out on his own, these days most of his work is for wealthy Porsche owners and shops who cater to them, and offshore powerboat racers, both groups are used-to hemorrhaging $$$$.
A pic of the intake area:
for when 1500cc plus isn't 'enough.'
