Nope. Only the crankshaft will make it a 383. 327/350/383 strokers all share a 4.0 std bore. .030 only means it was bored that much bigger in a rebuild. Uses .030 pistons. _________________ A redline a day keeps the carbon away! |

The old rule of thumb was... over 3000lbs of weight, 100lbs = .1 in ET.
5 cubes? Hehe take a leak before racing. :OP _________________ A redline a day keeps the carbon away! |

Oh yeah. Read it and work and spaced it. I'm game. Just gotta find time. Super busy in the current. Maybe post holidays if that's not too late? _________________ A redline a day keeps the carbon away! |

Nah, no rush. My pipe-dream of having this car at dyno is kinda looking not so good now that real life got in the way. You got another PM, though. |
