Default 5.3 block boreXstroke question

Been trying to search some stuff but the search is super pickey these days.


Whats the typical CUI for a stroked and bored out 5.3????

I assume you can still get to a 402 ish or something or do I need to find a 6.0 block????

People typically take it out to the stock LS1 bore (3.900") or 5 thousandths over because there are more pistons available in that size. A 4" stroke will easily fit giving 383cid.

When you are starting out with 325cid, that is a very healthy increase in CID.

I thought you could get to like a 402 with a 5.3????

Fund out I need the 6.0 for the bore... Ill keep this motor for my wifes car and find a 6.0 block a little later.
