How hard is it to make a 383 stoker ?
Is all you have to do is drop a 400 crank in a 350 block ??

My last engine was a 427 4in stroker crank from enginekits 72 2 bolt 400 block sbc .
Pretty much pushed the limits over the top with this engine. Done a lot of clearancing.
Pan rails are thin. Notched the cylinders. Used a small base cam. Cut and welded oil pan.
The engine is a beast. Now, I am getting ready to install a bigger rad to keep the beast cool.
This engine may fail on me. Only my right foot and time will know.
383 is a great engine. Thats where I started. But torque is addicting.
Kind of like NOS. Can't wait to get the hot rod store to get your next fix.
