TBI 383 stroker?

hey just wondering if you can get a TBI 383 stroker... i'm thinking you can just buy a TBI 350 and go from there? See i'm thinking of getting rid of my tired 4.3L and going with a torquey(sp) 383 stroker... but my truck is TBI and i heard that if you have TBI it's way easier to do an engine swap if you stay TBI... it'll be a trail machine so i would prefer to have it NA but i guess it's too hard to swap over... just looking for some direction.

thanx
lee

A TBI would not be a practical swap in a 99-up, and I hope that's what you're talking about since you posted here.

If you have a 99+ I'd do a 6.0 conversion.

If you got a 99+ do a 6.0 swap or if you got the money get an LS7 crate engine $14000
