I don't think you can go that high w/ stock cubes man...

You gotta sleeve it to bore it that much I do believe.

On that mill, all you can go is 383 cubes. Anything else and you will need a ls2/6.0L iron block, to go a stroker.

after further research i found that the 406 stroker was 6.0l i did order a stroker kit for a 383 thanks guys

I just finished my 396 stroker, thats with a 3.903 bore on a stock LS6 block. I used a 4.125 crank your 383 uses a 4.000 stroke
Eagle makes a 393 stroker kit

[vytamenc]

you got yur kit from eagle? did you have to dao any clearancing? anything special you have to do.

[tylerdurden1]

Thats cool that you can stroke it that much out on that bore. Only down side is that its not a square motor. I wonder if there will be any type of premature wear issues. I bet the liners had to be cleared for the connecting rods.

how much hp will a stock ls1 block hold before grenading?

[BerryWS6]

no premature ware, thats why I used 6.250 rods, for the rod angle to the cylinder wall. thats also why Eagle uses a 6.200 rod on there 393 stroker kits


I used a Callies crank, lunati rods and pistons

I have yet to hear of a split LS1 block. Anybody?

[mghawk57]

12 psi of boost on a stock motor and #4 piston broke and cracked the liner and the block.12 psi was not smart on my part -- --- 402 stroker with forged internals is the next stop.
