hi to all

dose any one do a stroker kit for the 5.3 ????????

thanks

 

You can bore it out to stock LS1 bore and then throw in a 4" stroke crank and you'll get an iron block 382. Someone here did it. Just a 4" stroke with a stock 5.3 bore yeilds 366 I think, which is barely larger than a stock 6.0, plus I don't know if anyone makes stroker pistons for 5.3s.

 

thanks

but do thye also have low copmretion pistons for it with the stroker

thanks

 

I'm sure any of the forged piston manufacturers can make you a custom set if they don't make them already. Try Diamond pistons, or any of the sponsors to the right.----->

 

I know that JE Pistions will make you any size you want. They will even make pistons for a forged 4.8L

 

I did it but bored out the block to 3.905" ( from 3.78" ). You can get the pistons custom made but the blocks will take the bigger bore without any issue and open up lots more parts options. Most folks are gonna tell you to go with the 6.0L motor and stroke it to 402 ci. SDPC makes a short block for a very decent cost, not much more than what you might pay doing the work on the 5.3/4. motors.
BTW the bore size is the exact same on the 4.8 and 5.3L, only difference is stroke. Keep that in mind if looking for donor motors.

 

Lunetti makes low compretion pistons, stroker kit and everyy thing now for a ls1 style motor. I know you can bore it over to make it a 350 with the stock crank, if interested i could look up what the size was.

 

thanks it would be a lot of help
please help me out

cos i am planning for the Livernois Motorsports turbo kit but with about 1Bar
of boost so i am looking at about 8.0/1 copretion with some good flowng heads like the ones by AFR.
