The stroker is going to require installing a whole new crank and clearancing (machining)the block to accept the longer stroke. You will definately need to pull the motor and expect some downtime unless you are very good and have a shop at your disposal. Changing the pistons, lifters and valve springs are not really required but most people opt to do them since you are that far into the motor you might as well do them. The power comes from the stroke of the pistons.
