stroker kit for LS1

[Kingston_99]

this question has probs been asked alot on here, i did do research and couldnt find anything i wanted to know.

whats a good stroker kit for an LS1, keep in mind i will be bolting a HTV2300 on at the sametime the stroker is done.

Give Nick a call at NJC and tell him what your plans are :):) he has great price short motors available to suite any application I will be getting one very soon myself:):)

are you better off building a big lsx block ie 454 or even bigger with good heads ect.

something along theese lines

my personal opinion is to leave boost alone in this warm climate

im in the same boat and found pavtek strokers are a good option as it comes with h beams and forged pistons and a eagle crank i think

thanks for the fast replies guys, as i said in the other thread. if i knew the price of an LS3 etc i wouldnt not have wasted time and money on my LS1.

i just want my LS1 stroked and blown.
also the car is used on the street, but mostly lives in the shed. so hot areas doesnt even bother me. if i lived on NSW, i would of went TT.

is the crank a cast? i dont want an cast crack with a 2300 blowing air down it

depends what sort of boost youre gunna run !!!stock crank wont give you the cubes but wont give you probs either on a mildly s/charge combo its more likely the pistons, rings rod bolts,head bolts that will give you reliability in the long run on a mild boosted supercharged application!!!! cheers otherwise feel free to go all out !!!!its all good!!!

[Kingston_99]

Haha, excuss me. but are you having a dig at me?
LOL im not even thinking of slapping the big boy on with out engine work... hence why im asking people on here whats a good stroker kit...

as for boost, i will be running just over 10PSI. i can go lower by changing the front pullies as i have a glimer belt on the rear drive.

As I have said above mAke a call it's easier than listening to everyone think they know everything

LS1 is 3.9 inch bore LS3 is 4.060 bore. Lots of extra potential in hp and flow. Look at super sedan engines. They need Torque to get out of corners, There not using small bore, but 4.155 bores and 3.3 inch strokes with 105 LSA cams and smash strokers for hp and torque as head choice at this level is so good. ie LS7 all pro heads on a big bore.

Sounds like you will spend a lot of money on something that could be a lot better, why not just stick a big stick in a LS1 stick some head studs in it and big fuel system and boost it right up. FI is fine and very consistent in the warmer weather with right tune, engine , spark plug heat range. LS1s are so cheap now you can push some half decent boost in this like 13-14 psi with a 240s cam sounds tough make big power then build another engine in the meantime.

;);) great minds think alike:):) hey Joel

But you can't beat the correct NA engine set up properly:):)

As I have said above mAke a call it's easier than listening to everyone think they know everything.

yeah mate, i will have to give him a call in a week or so. im on a mine site now and dont leave till another week (hopefully).

There is a mob in Sydney doing stroker kits for around 2200 with CP pistons callies crank n rods, I will find the details tomorrow.

Nothing stopping you using a cathedral port head on a big bore, so your blower will fit.

Give Nick a call at the shop tomorrow 03 9331 6757 let him know your plans and he will offer the best solution for situation.

There are plenty of options out there, some that you might have not even thought of yet :yup:

[Kingston_99]

ok the plan is now to bolt the blower onto the LS1 and underdrive the blower.

I planing to buy a short block sometime this year and will slowly build that up for the blower.

i will need a new cam for my LS1 so it will let a little bit of boost out the zorst at the lower revs. My question is what size cam should i get? i currently have a Comp Cam 224

Howdy,

COME RACING has some nice looking 383 and 408 stroker kits and assembled engines:

Sounds like it will be tough.

not many places to drive it up there.

was bad enough when i lived there and had my road bike with me. just have to watchout for cattle.

[Kingston_99]

whats a good size cam to let boost out the exhuast in low rev's?
i have a 224/228/112 cam, want to have one a little bigger to help the standard LS1 live wiht the big blower.
