It shouldn't be too much of a problem but every block is different...
A lot of 'stroker' motors may need a couple of mock-ups. The factory notching at the buttom of the bores may not be sufficient and also some more notching may need to be done around the buttom of the bores before the oil pain rail. Also remember that you may need a notched oil pan designed for the added stroke. It's highly unlikely that you will need to grind on the pan rails, which is a good thing because a oil gallery runs through them.
