Why use the weak, thin main webbing 383 blocks? Why not use a 400 block to start with? work scope


I am assuming the pistons will be custom......

383 block

4.25 stroke x 4.28 bore with a 6.535 rod
up up
I had two 440 stick shift forged crankshafts offset ground to 3.91 stroke with BB Chevy rod journal sizes with B motor mains, one for my 1969 Dart GTS H code 4 speed car and the other for a 400 block I'll build later.
I bought two sets of BB Chevy type 7.100 long forged I beam rods from Speedway for both motors, neither one should make over 550 HP on pump gas, I think work
My first 400 pump gas 4.250 stroke stroker motor used a set of CAT 6.800 long BB Chevy H beam rods, Dan, Dram, called those pistons hockey pucks grin They where short and light weight up grin
