Default What all comes with the Lunati 382 stroker kit?

Like the questions says. I know rings come with it, but did everyone use those rings or use another brand? How about Rist pins?? How about Rod bolts?? Can you get it with lower copmp. pistons?? Who has a good price on this kit?? I believe Raging Motorsports had a good price but i cant find any info on there site. Thanks.

Actually, the pistons come with -1cc valve reliefs. The -8cc dished pistons are a special order and using them will leave you with the stock compression ratio. You can get the pistons in either 3.898 or 3.903 sizes (for .005 hone)

The bearings are King. The rods are 6.125" long billet superlights. The pistons have a compression height of 1.123"

The Lunati kit comes with everything. Pistons, moly rings, wrist pins, keepers, rod bearings, main bearings, rods and crank. If you buy it as a kit it comes fully balanced.
Pistons are -8cc and flycut around .100

You can get them in 9:1 compression ratio. I was told that you can call Lunati and they will give you 9:1 compression pistons for a minimal extra amount with your kit.

I've seen the kits in the 3300 ballpark. They seem to be coming down. You may want to check out ramchargers. They had a good price on them not too long back.

I thought the stroker crank could be had in several demensions up to 4.125 ...If installed in a 6.0 liter block that is a lot of cubes!

Unfortunately, these kits are very expensive when compared to other stroker kits for early model chevy small blocks.....

...these high prices have got to come down in time right?
