Stroker FT? 700 1988

Has anyone played around with the stroke on these FT engines? I have two spares that need a rebuild and I am going to increase the compression and leave off the Turbo on one. I am thinking of stroking it .630" to make it a "square" motor, and try to find a more radical camgrind.
I also noticed that the valves are fairly small, anyone open up one of these heads?

It probably will cost as much as building a small block chevy for my 87 740, but it would be unique.
