Default My ls1 is seized. Best options for a stroker?

I am thinking of still using my block after the machining of course as it fits everything back on it (oil pan,front accessories etc) then I wouldn't have to fork money over for a new ls2 block or something. What are my options as far as stroker kits etc. I want this thing to be a torque monster. I gotta see about cost for heads/intakes and kits etc. Anybody wanna ballpark what a build will cost?

Places like Thompson Motorsports and Texas Speed have good deals. Check out their 383 stroker kits

Parts alone will be close to $2000. Depending on what's going on inside your engine, it's probably at least another $1000 for cleaning, machining, and assembly.

Lost oil pressure as the guage read 0. Then just shut down while it was operating on the way to the shop
