silverado777 Posted December 13, 2010 Report Share Posted December 13, 2010 I'm in the process of getting an LQ9 out of an HD pick up. I throwing around the idea of turning it into a 408 stroker. However, I'm trying to do this on a budget. I was wondering what you guys think of these kits. http://cgi.ebay.com/Chevy-LS6-LS1-STROKER-SHORTBLOCK-408-racing-NEW-/230356972577?pt=Race_Car_Parts&hash=item35a2587421 http://cgi.ebay.com/TSP-LS1-LS2-Forged-Stroker-Rotating-Assembly-402-408-/290361906012?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item439aeb135c http://cgi.ebay.com/LS1-CHEVY-STROKER-KIT-BALANCED-383-408-421-434-RP-/230556281514?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item35ae39aaaa Let me know what you guys think. Like I said this is just an idea. If you have any other ideas on what to do with the LQ9 I am open for suggestions. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSplaytoy Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 Are you going to build it or have a shop do it? I'm not big on getting certain stuff off ebay. The first guy doesn't note about warranty but those are quality parts. If anything, I would go with the TSP kit, but you can call them and have one of the guys over there help build you a package. All in all, you could build a nice stroker for around 5k with heads and all if you shop around and do the work yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterp Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 N/A or Nitrous motor = yes, more cubes makes sense. Boost of any sort = keep the stock crank in it and use a premium set of forged pistons, rings, and aftermarket rod bolts. Either way, get the best set of heads you can afford and correct camming to put it all together. Mr. P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
