350 vs 383

Hello all I would like to know if there is a big difference in the torque of a 350 as opposed to a 383 to make it worth doing? pros & cons please.

Thank you all

A 383 in most sense is a fully bored and stroked 350.

Difference is without any other power adders, you've implroved the valumetric efficiency of the 350 for more torque.

Heads are the key to power, don't bother with a stroker unless you are willing to do the heads too which depending on which 350 you have that may mean something aftermarket or might just mean porting. Also be prepared to have to deal with the computer if so equipped.
