NLinnear runs a TTP 395stroker and was getting good results. Try searching on his name or PMing him for results.

I don't have any of their products but from word of mouth they are a top notch shop. Their new H/C set ups have been kicking some serious *** too.

Shop around, try LME (Bryan). From my shopping experience, he was the best. He trook time to listen, work with you all the way to maximise your combo.
I'm waiting patiently to place my order with them.

Is a cheaper price always a better deal And who do you suggest? I'm sure i could go with Eagle stuff but TTP does there kits with Lunati and i think Lunati is one of the higher Quality parts out there. Plus it also comes with pro billit rods

Plus, they are close by. I'd rather have the place local to me in case of any problems rather than the mail order short block.

TTP built my block for my 99. A lunati 347. Great work! George knows his stuff. If you have the wallet, get the AFR 225 heads hand finished by TTP and the Equalizer V.3 Cam shaft, Top end power is incredible with this cam, need 4.10 gears though or goodnight!

The 395 tend to have oil consumption issues due to the piston comming so far out of the bottom of the cylinder. I don't suggest this combination. You would be much better off with a 408" Same price and you will have a solid set up that will make more power.

listen to Bryan

I ditched my 395 and had LME build me a kickass 408. Their turnaround time on the motor was amazing.

I do not want to go with a bigger bore due to the fact that i have 5.3L heads. I know that i could cnc the cambers to fit a larger bore but i do not want the extra cost and i would like to keep the aluminium block as well

Then go 382/383 and keep the 5.3's with a cam to match your heads.

Default Oil consumption???

I consume oil every day. It keeps me all lubed up. As for my motor, it's not allowed to drink any

destroyerSS, if you want to check out a 395 stroker, let me know. Your not too far away from me.

Matt, George and the rest of the TTP gang have treated me very well. I dropped of the car, told them what I was looking for, and they got it done right!

Mike's 395ci has never consumed oil. We do some modifications to make sure it will not burn oil. As with any of my installed motor packages I will back it up 100%.

Take the ride in his car... I'll bet you have fun
