Lunati 408 from a LQ4? Im trying to nail down the specifics about the heart of a proposed swap (cost and dimensions determine much) and I know very little about engine internal tweaking.
How are people liking the Lunati for high boost applications? Other combinations that I should look into? Weight isn't a concern as the car is a pig anyways.
Do the stroker kits lend themselves better for supercharger or turbo duty?
Thank You.

The crankshaft and Connecting rods have little to nothing to do with using forced induction or not. No need really to spend the cash on Lunati. Get a Callies Compstar 4.00" crankshaft, bore the block .030" over, get Eagle or simillar 6.125" rods. Now, the compression ratio is what will determine if you should go with forced induction. If you know the combustion chamber size in the heads you are set on, you can call Wiseco and they will help you choose pistons with the correct dish for your crank and rods to get the ideal compression ratio.
