Re: 383 stroker kit questions?
Easy Ticker easy....lol
I have noticed in the past that an internal engine will last ALOT longer...chances are your not going to beat it like a race truck..not only that but is you want to squirt it, the parts will be of better quality and will tned to stay together longer.... I think a vortec 383 would be the balls.....If I had to guess your looking at and easy to drive 350 to 400 ponies with decent mileage....well when your foot isn't stuck in the carb

Re: 383 stroker kit questions?
Yeah, I know I get kinda wound up
![]() For a lot of guys, they only get one shot at engine building and there's not a lot of budget to fix stuff...so I get more than a little tweaked when a vendor takes someone off in a bad direction right out of the gate. I do somewhere around 20 engines/year - just for fun; I don't charge for my time. I can't count the number of times I've quietly eaten $2-300 of machine work to fix junk a guy got from a vendor (or based on bad advice from someone that's never actually built an engine) that just wasn't right...and he didn't have the budget to fix. Must....relax..... ![]() Last edited by Ticker; 07-02-2010 at 07:50 PM. |
