The main disadvantage of a stroker kit is that the larger the displacement the thinner the cylinder walls/sleeves will be. Example: Most engine builder's will only stroke a 1.6L to 1.8L if it will be used for turbo/nitrous applications. This also helps ensure the cylinders do not "float".
How does a stroker kit make the sleeves thinner? Are you perhaps thinking of boring the cylinders(which also increases displacement)?
