I would depend on if you are asking a Chevy man or a Mopar man. Personally I like the Chevy 350.
If you are referring to a Chevy 383 made from a 350 block with a 400 crank, it would always make more torque than a 350. So if torque is what you're after, "there's no replacement for displacement".
Different crankshaft.
yes.
350 block, 400 crank. Main journals must be turned to accept 350 bearings. Stock bore is 377. .030 over is 383.
NO, the 383 is called a stroker engine. It is a 350 with a 400 crankshaft that is machined, to make it work in a 350 block. There are other factors and modifications to be made when building a stroker. The only 383 that came from the factory is in Chrysler vehicles.
A 350 bored 40 over is a automobile engine which has had its displacement increased to 383 cubic inches. This results in more power without needing to purchase a new engine.
400 block, with a 350 crankshaft. 383 cid.
No a 383 is a 350 with a 400 crank. A 350 bored 60 over is 361 cubes.
A 350 bored 40 over is a automobile engine which has had its displacement increased to 383 cubic inches. This results in more power without needing to purchase a new engine.
YES a Whole lot better.
350...383 is a stroker motor, a 350 with a 400 crank and cam which increases the stroke and adds .3 liters of displacement.
a 383 stroker is just a 400 crank in a 350 block...so yes
i have a 350 bored 40 over and 400 crank, and been told its a 383 stroker, what is it?
