5VZ Stroker Kits ????

G'day all,

Im from Australia here, hoping to get some info from you fellow Yanks on the 5VZ. I googled "5VZ stroker" and came up only with a single comment that someone posted somewhere saying they had heard of a 4.0 litre 5VZ stroker kit.

Now I dont know if he is talking crap, but I thought the USA being the land of milk and honey, and where anything is possible, that maybe someone might have made some sort of stroker kit for the 5VZ.

Im guessing that a stroker kit would be cheaper than a blowe and give us the much needed low-down torque we all seek once suspension and bigger tyres are put on.

Can somebody help me in my quest for the mythical "5VZ Stroker kit", if it exists??

Max.

Never heard of a stroker kit for the 3.4, but I am jealous of the Diesel Landcruisers you guys can get down there in Australia.

I wonder if I can import one to the states?

I haven't seen any stroker kits for the 5VZ, but that doesn't mean they don't exist.
Obviously S/C'd 5VZ motors are far more common up here even in the land of milk and honey.

Give these guys a try (you might ask Gadget if he's seen any):

.....you can also PM him on YT, but it may take some time for a response.

I thought the 3.4 is already running a pretty high compression.
