i bet it is close the block is $6,000 with a hook up

thechef:'i would get a bigger stroker kit if i were you' : Susch as? I have a great deal for a Lunati kit thats why i choose their kit.How much is the others? Brand?

Wont the stroker kit have the wrong pistons you would be looking at a set of custom pistons for the larger 4.125 bore with the C5R block also should be looking at a set of custom pistons to lower your compression ratio ? dont the stroker kits run around 10.8 CR ?

Hey Mert! It's Jason from Detroit, about this whole C-5R thing, i was gonna do the same thing, and have most of the parts still, and obviously since i am not going to do it, have these parts, that i would sell ya, about the lunati kit, if you can get them to make you low compression pistons for the 4.125 bore cool, but if not, i got a set of custom ones from Diamond racing, to be used with the lunati crank, which i already sold, and the C-5R block, i'll give them both to you for $6,000 then you could still buy the lunati kit, just shelf or sell the pistons, or sell them. If you are interested, email me, and we can figure things out. I also have a set of C-5R heads, off a real C-5R race car, that are pending a sale right now.

If you don't mind telling, how much would one expect to pay from a private party for C5R used Racing heads? How much more power would these heads make over the best vendor's stage III race prepped LS6 heads on a 422+ superstroker?

If you don't want to go public with the $ questions please email me as i could be interested if you sale on the heads fall thru.

Thanks,

strife : Yes but i can order a kit for much lower com.ratio pistons.Yes as far as i know they are between 10.8 and 11.1 CR.Looks like custom pistons is the best way to go.

Hey Jason how are you <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> You have mail!
