Default Rebuilding a LS1

I have a Ls1 motor that i bought with a spun bearing for around 500 bucks at the yard. I was either looking to just rebuiding it or putting in a 383 stroker kit. I was wondering if you guys know whats the cheapest kit i can find. I am planning on putting this engine in my 944 Porsche. Thanks

The following should get you started. You may find that it's not necessarily more expensive to do an LS2 402 stroker.

Good luck,
