So the kit of AMS were not developed and flowbenched by AMS itself but they simply outsourced the parts to create the kit? . If that is the case, no wonder why everyone is telling me it is cheaper.

I don't think it a case where AMS wasn't thoughtful when selecting the components in the kit, but rather the crank is a standard forged 100mm 4G64 crank versus a custom piece.

It seems to me that the single most expensive component of kits like Jun or Crower is the crank. Custom forged pistons and billet rods aren't that big of a deal in comparison.

True. Instead of me getting the parts one by one, it quite saved money by getting the whole jun race engine. ask how much i spent.... dont wanna think about it. takes the enjoyment out of it. hahaha. Read about the JUN crank

We got it straight from Tanaka Industrial Co. in Japan. Takashi Nezu san of Jun got the transfer case and had modified it to fit the 4G63, then sent it over together with the engine crate and the flywheel.

Now I'm just guessing that anyone who wants a stroker kit is after some serious horsepower. The EMS and drivetrain will all have to be upgraded correct?

RRS has my vote too, www.4g63.com. Ask them to build you a complete 4g64 2.4l bottom end and incorporate the oil squirters and the works. They built my 2.0 built engine and it runs ridiculously great, I wouldn't ask anyone else to build the engine after them.
