Chevy 383 Stroker Crate Engine

The Chevrolet 383 engine was not a production engine; it was created by using a Chevrolet 350 block. Some engine builders figured out how to turn down a Chevy 400 crankshaft mains to fit inside a Chevrolet 350 block. Initially, they used 400 connecting rods to create the 383 rotating assembly, but later they discovered that they only needed different pistons and Chevy 5.7 rods, which resulted in a better square engine. The higher revving 383 engines produced more horsepower and created a significant amount of torque in the bottom end, making them second in popularity behind the Chevrolet 350 for street rods, street cruisers, everyday drivers, work trucks, and boats. The Chevy 383 engines are an aftermarket hit, making them the best-selling Chevy small block aftermarket performance engine in Chevy's engine building history. These motors are created using the Chevrolet 350 production block, and in the aftermarket, even better blocks have been created by Dart and Brodix, which are made of aluminum and steel. The 4-bolt main 383 engines became a sensation across the entire aftermarket performance industry for producing a significant amount of horsepower.
