Chevy journals are 50.4mm. Porsche 356 journal cranks have 53mm. VW Beetles have 55mm journals. Honestly, with only three journals supporting the crank and the whipping and flexing going on, I would NOT go for smaller journals. The crank is already heavier when going for a stroker, but it is at least better balanced.

Just get a pre-clearanced case in the bore size you desire.

Builder's choice kits are nice, and I believe you CAN substitute some things. I know I certainly would, but that's me: I'm a picky motorhead sumbitch. I believe they will work with you and you can omit parts(I'd swap cam and rockers for sure).

If you do get new heads, make sure you get the appropriate CNC port-matched manifolds.
