No easy answers here,Dave
The 9" GM is a common core from the 80's ...therefore they can be built a lot cheaper...That's why you see those deals out there.
Certain 9 " combos are capable of multiplying more torque than an 8", but you've really got to know what you're doing to match the performance throughout the entire quarter mile.
The 8" stuff are re-pops based on the old Opel design, so they cost more going in.
You really don't need a custom designed billet or fabbed stator for a Stocker.
Those are more for the high hp apps. or high RPM Comp style 7".
The RPM and stall may go up, but not necessarily the torque multiplication.
