Hey everybody, new to the site. Thought i'd tell ya about my 396 stroker i'm in the process of building. I have a race prepared 96 Vette block i bought already machined. Its bored .45 over which cubic inches are 398 now. Bottom end will consist of: Callies Dragonslayer stroker crankshaft, Forged H-Eagle 6" rods, JE .45 over racing pistons, Oliver Billet 4 Bolt main caps with ARP studs and bolts. Canton Oil pan. I sent Bare Trick Flow castings to Loyd Elliott which he worked, Valve sizes are 2.08, 1.625 valves, LT4 intake port matched to the heads, with a Custom cam by Loyd Elliott. 36 to 38lb injectors. All this goin the a 4L60E if it holds up. Anybody else running a 396?

Welcome to the board.

I don't have a 396, but that build sounds like it's going to be a lot of fun!

Is that A4 still stock?

I had it rebuilt about 2 years ago, some racing parts in the bands and such, with a Trans Go shift kit. But from what i hear they dont hold up under pressure.

Well, hopefully it holds... I'm going to have mine rebuilt before slapping the new 355 LE2 combo on it. The trans is completely stock with 120k miles on it.

A BUILT 4L60E is running in the 8.50's in a 'Vett with a Rossler.

Yea i will be running a 10 bolt for now with 3.73's for now, but i will probably end up gettin a 12 bolt later. And gonna spray a 200 shot on down the road to.

When you get finished and tuned give us a some numbers As you can see in my Sig...Lloyds heads worked great for me........

I'll have some numbers. I hope to have it done by the spring. I think it will put down a real nice number.
