Default Engine build questions? please help

I'm preparing to build my motor it is a 6.0 iron block bored 30 over and a stroker crank what bearings are everyone using and gaskets too? Also timing chains, what about the new slp double roller?

Thanks
Sean

Thunder has gaskets.

More has bearings.

Rollmaster makes a nice double roller. I got mine from Nick http://www.agostino-racing.com/home.html ATI makes the best damper around. Got mine at Thunder.

I'd be asking Nick Agostino for pointers. Throw a little business his way. He's personable and easy to talk to about yer situation...

Sean,

What crank are you using? Thunder had Lunati put together an LS1 kit for me with custom pistons for the 6.0 block. It came with bearings and rings as well. You don't have to use the stuff Lunati sends although if you don't make sure you use bearings that match the crankshaft. The Lunati crank requires chamfered bearings...

Also, if you have any other questions about this setup, shoot me an email. Geoff and I have extensive experience with this build-up.
