Okay guys sorry if this is a duplicate thread I think I've read a similar post somewhere but couldn't find it. Anyways I have a 80's 350 block 2 pc rms and 4 bolt main that needs a refresh I was planning to do a 383 stroker with new vortech heads and intake.
Today at work someone suggested for the price I was going to spend on the 383 (little over 2 grand) I should just go big for a 454 and stroker that or rebuild that instead and maybe even save some money.
This will be going in my 84 Chevy k20 which won't be a daily driver so gas mileage isn't a huge deal, mostly for fun having alot of power in a big truck and towing here and there. My truck did come with the 350 block I have so I'm not sure how much extra the different engine mounts and fitment issues would run my tab up to. Any suggestions on which way to go or help would be great guys thanks!
