Sort of... But in the VQ's case, a stroker generally involves wet sleeves; now removing most machine shops from the equation. The guy I know has a large investment into a Mazak machining center that is dedicated to performing wet sleeve installation. He also has experience with wet sleeving Nissan 60 degree V6s.
Also, a high end machine shop has an endless list of specialty equipment well beyond boring and honing for engine balancing and assembly. If the only equipment your builder has that you have never used before is for boring and honing, your odds of a successful build will be greater somewhere else.
