383 Stroker?
Hey guys, wanted some opinions from you yall about my plans for my 383. I have a 69 383 4 speed barracuda which I plan on doing a stock resto except for the drivetrain. I realize a stock 383 in an abody is quick already but want some more power. I want the engine to look stock but be capable of 12s at the track and be reliable to drive on street. I was thinking of stroking the 383 and would like to know exactly whats involved in this. Can I use a stock forged 440 crank and rods? I want to be around 9.5.1 compression for street gas and use the stock hp exhaust manifolds and carb. I will prob use an aftermarket intake. What kind of cam and head work would you recommend using the exhaust manifolds? It is a 4 speed with 355 gears. I appreciate all your help.
