help with building a 383 stroker
Im looking to get a 383 stroker but i have no idea where to start. What company should i go through to get all the parts or should i just get this http://www.golenengineservice.com/sp...383compsb.html
What can i expect from a 383 stroker horsepower and torque wise or would an sts twin turbo setup be a better option?

A 383 LS1/LS6 is a step in the wrong direction. -- undersquare motors make dog**** horsepower.
Do yourself a favor and stick with a 347 or buy an LQ4/LQ9 block and build a 408.
An STS is an even bigger joke.
If you still have no idea about what you want to do and you're finished searching threads about this subject, your best bet is to call up a reputable vendor from our Supporting Vendor links or even Futral Motorsports at www.futralmotorsports.com

Did you blow your engine or are you just looking for more power?
If the engine is toast build a forged 347 or if you want more cubes go the 402 LS2, 408 LQ9, or 427 LS3 route.
If your just looking for more power spray that bitch. 200hp shot. Your converter/tranny/gears all look like it can handle it. With those 4.10 I probably wouldn't spray in 1st unless your running a 28" tire, but it'd still be fun!!!!!
