Re: 396 stroker question

I just have a question. where are you getting the pistons from. To have a 11:1 ratio, is pretty hard with the wrist pin being where its at in the piston. Unless your not using reverse cooled heads the comp ratio for a lt1 396 setup is 12:1. The only way to get a lower comp ratio is to use a lunati or callies crank that excepts a 5.85 rod.
