1 - 0.030 over is the best, its a standard, lots of cheap parts, aka pistons and rings, so no custom stuff, less money. and its a number machine shops are used to doing.

2 - if your already droppin the dime, i would spring for at the very least a port and polish and maybe a three angle valve job. not really nessesary, but certainly to your benifit.

3 - for a 383, i would reccomend a 750-800 cfm, unless its a radical street/strip monster. a mild to kinda spicy 383 should handle those numbers fine. intake, edelbrock performer, and a stock HEI distributor would work just fine.

4&5 - dunno, havnet had it done myself, couldnt tell ya.

I laughed when i first read the topic of this thread, but that's because i'm immature.

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!! dude how did i MISS that????? i just almost wet myself ohhh geezus, i need to go take a piss.

Will your stroker kit feature a forged steel crank?

Will you belt out 478hp from a piddly 230/236 cam?

I built my motor to be bullet proof. I didn't want to throw together a motor with cheap parts.

im in the process of buliding a 383 right at the moment, found my 350 4-bolt on the side of the road :evillol: i have a 350 2-bolt in my camaro now, im takin the top end of that, dart heads, victor jr intake, worked 650 carb, im pickin up the engine kit 4 around 2000, but im converting to roller that gonna cost a few hundred more for the cam etc, machine shop work around 500, so my 383 it gonna run me aorund 3000, damn thats how much i payed for the hole car ha, i got the 3000 worth, dogged the shit outa the little 2.8 5 speed for a long time
