Engine Assembly, 1999-02 LS-1 382/530 HP
"There is no substitute for cubic inches except cubic money" racers have always known that to be true----until NOW! Here's a way to get the benefits of cubic inches at a competitive price! A 382 CID stroker motor. Get 530 horsepower and 512 ft/lbs of torque from your LS-1 or LS-6 engine on premium pump gas!
SLP disassembles and inspects every part of your engine. All machine work is performed including: match honing the bores to pistons and line honing the block main and cam journals. The stroker crankshaft and rotating assembly is balanced and the entire package is blueprinted and carefully assembled with new gaskets, bearings, bolts, rings and lifters. Also included is a custom ported SLP head and cam package designed for your engine. The cam is degreed and a custom PCM calibration configured for the vehicle.
The engine package also includes:
Forged 4032 aluminum pistons
Super light Pro Billet 4340 steel rods
Forged 4340 steel crank
New timing gear/chain set
SLP 160 degree thermostat
and much much more!
This is our maximum horsepower package, with 11.4 compression ratio and a 6900 RPM redline. This engine is sold for OFF ROAD USE ONLY!
Retail price of engine is $10,500 and does not include installation. Installation quoted separately depending on accessories and options desired. Basic installation starts at $2799.00
Call one of our Technical Sales Representatives for more details on having an SLP 382 CID stroker built for your car.
If you provide SLP a core, you get a 382 Stroker for $10,500, this is not installed but it includes programing.
$10,500 for a 382 Stroker isn't that bad when you consider it has the about $4000 in the rotating assembly, another $2500 or so in the heads and cam. Custom program say $500. Tear down and rebuild labor $1500 and parts.
The install charge is what's way to high starting at $2799!!! The core charge of $3000 is typical.
If you could do the swap yourself and pick up a cheap LS1 core off E-bay or somewhere to cover the core charge, might work out pretty well.
MORE Performance wants $13,500 for a very simlar package for just the 382 stroker.
