Im pretty sure I am posting this in the right place, if Im not mods please move this. I was about to send off my spare ls block to CNCwerx and I couldn't get the crank out with my Walmart impact driver so I said to myself lets see if I can just buy a sleeved LS block. I was looking and seen a CSS's GSR block for 350, I hoped on that ****. When I went to meet the kid to buy it from he was younger than me and had a kid a week before hand right before hurricane Irma.

TLDR


Im putting my LS crank in the GSR block because I already have forged pistons and rods and a decent crank is 300 on ebay. What crank pulley do I want to use? I am going to get it balanced.

 

This had been done quite a bit, and well-documented. The LS rods must go with the crank, everything else can be GS-R. Please remove oil squirters. Compression will be determined by piston bore & compression

 

From the increase in stroke is there anymore stress on the bearings than normal?

 

No. There is no correlation between bearing stress and stroke. It is no different than any other "striker build". Google search G"LS"R.
