Are you looking for a whole rotating assembly or just a set of pistons?

Also, 11:1 will work on the street in an LT1, you just have to have everything tuned pretty well.

Many of the board vendors can help out. I personally like dealing with Combination Motorsports. www.cmotorsports.com

Are you going to have a local machine shop rebuild your motor? If so....see what kind of prices they can offer you on parts. They should be able to get stuff at a deeply discounted price.
