Deal with your local machinist. There is no "one size fits all" kit for stroking a motor, it depends on how the motor will be used and what your goals are.

Not only will they know more then most people here, but if anything goes wrong then they can't put the blame on you. Most shops have extremely limited warranties if any, and I can promise you any parts you provide will void ALL liability from your shop.

I wouldn't waste my money on a stroker kit that small. If I were doing a stroker, it would be 400+ cubic inches.

finally got to a track--- first time out, ran two 7.9's before I got the boot for no DS loop. DA was 3800 which was pretty brown. if they gave me another pass or two I would have either gotten a 7.8, or blew the guts of the 10 bolt all over the track.

by comparison my brothers stock 5.0 was running 8.7-8.9 @ 80 mph here.

What's your goals for the car? Unless you're trying to make it run bottom 10's or 9's no stroker needed. Not really needed even then just easier.

Those don't equate to 11 second slips


Pretty easy wasn't it ?

Kidding aside like I said on Haters you'll be there more and more once you get the bug... Oh and trailered in = race car

Just figure my engine is gonna need to be bored out and a 383 is safe for the ls1. If it somehow magically doesn't need it then ill be surprised. But i am thinking of a 408 forged with a 200shot until i get the money for a turbo
