I don't think anyone , 383 pistons for a stroker are few and far between , the standard piston CH for the 383 stroker is a 1.320 ch , it works with a 3.75 stroke , 3.91 stroke and 4.25 stroke.

I assume you already have the crank and rods ? If not then now is the time to change , I have a set of new diamond 1.320 .030 383 pistons that I'm going to sell ...

Well they sell the kits for 383 now so pistons are available.
Mancini's sells the 383 stroker kits so they have access to the pitons call wes!

MuscleMotors offers 2 stroker kits too.

They dropped the 431 (3.75 crank) kit altogether but you could probably talk them into one.

That is your choice, the 4.150 stroke has fallen out of favor. The 1.320 compression height piston fits many differnt stroke lengths .

This is the same comp height when we ran with the 400 block,,,,and i dont think this has fallen out off favor ??? Same stroke,, same rod,, onley different bore size.

Maybe "fallen out of favor" was the wrong choice of words?

The 4.150 is not as "popular" now as it used to be, couple that with the 383 being the red headed step child of big block chryslers. It's in been the last few years that there are piston choices for the 383, but they are VERY LIMITED . Your best route is a semi custom Diamond piston.

Don't let the name fool you, semi-custom isn't that much more $$ than shelf stock on these Diamonds or the like. I think it's less than $100 to move the pin.
