Default Lunati Stroker Kits?

Hey guys, been doing some research and can't kind any info on here about LS1 stroker kits. Just wondering if anyone has a stroker motor and what kind of gains did you see from it? I'm looking at a few different ways for more power (really looking into the 396 stroker) and I'd really like to stay NA but just looking at gains to price? If anyone has a stroker just wondering about how much they cost too?

Whenever I see a stroker thread, I always mention the availability of 402 ls2 shortblocks, built from TSP, complete for about $3900. Worth a look.

Some clearance work had to be done on the block. You'll find some who mention oil consumption issues with this motor. This has not been the case with me.

Are you using the stock block? I can't seem to find the stroker kit on the site? I see a bunch of H/C combo's, lots of accessories and bolt-on's.

I'm using the LS6 block but the LS1 block would have been fine to use. There is nothing listed under the catalog. Under the engine section is where you'll find the turn-key price for a stroker motor.

After doing a lot of research, it looks to me that the 402 would probably be my best bet. I called and priced a Lunati 395 stroker kit and it was going to be just over $4,100 and I can buy a new 402 shortblock w/ forged bottom end for $3,900. Everything off my LS1 will fit onto the LS2 block besides for the knock sensor and cam sensor, correct?
