There shows a short block for 383 LT1...they use a stock crank I believe. I just bought my new block from there and got a good deal and great customer service...you could get a long block from there for 5600 and should be able to use the rest of your stuff on there...just an idea.

The standard crank Golen uses in his setups is an Eagle Cast Steel crank, either stock stroke or 3.75" for the 383 stroker.

Re: Forged or not forged internals??

I've been accused of having an over-built short block and thats a good thing. I've got 11 years of street driving and 1/4 mile racing on my short block which uses a Callies crank, Oliver billet steel 5.85" rods and JE forged pistons...Little excessive for a N/A set up? Yes, but over 11 years its worth every $$...Why use stuff that will "get you by..." Do it once and do it right so that down the road if want to use a power adder you know you'll be fine...
