Default Strokeroptions? Sponsers please chime in.

Hey Guys,

I am curious about what options I have in building a stroker with my ls1. Not looking to go to a 6.0 block nor do I want to hear it. I want to keep the alum block and I think it would be sweet to build a 10 second ls1 block based stroker as opposed to the run of the mill 408.

So far I have seen

Ls1 strokers on these cubes
383
393
396
396


What are my other options and where can I find the "other" stroker packages besides the 383?

Thanks

I have a 396, love it, just put my LSX 92mm intake on and I will be fabbing up my TD's soon.
with 900 miles on it I dynoed 470rwhp before the new manifold. goal is for 510rwhp and a 10.90 NA street car.

I think Lunati used to make one? I have done 2 but I got my own pistons and they were NA only combinations.

I have a Compstar 4.125 crank and Lunati rods and Pistons
friend of mine went FI so he kept the Lunati crank and I got a really good deal on the rods and pistons. I didnt see the reason to spend 2000 on the lunati crank when the Callies Compstar one is just 1000.
with that extra money I saved I was able to get Kooks headers and a new cam

Yep the crank doesn't really matter but I knew Lunati used to make the pistons for that kit.
