383 Stroker Parts
383 Stroker Parts
Selling the parts to make an excellent S/S 383 Pump gas short block. Built a 408 instead. These parts should be good for a 500HP set-up plus a little juice. Here's what I've got:
1) 3.75 Eagle ESP Cast crank(New, but had it turned 10/10 to clean-up the journals.) internally Balanced. 2-pc seal.
2. 5.85" Pro-Power 4340 Forged H-beam rods (New). These are stout.
3. JE/SRP Forged Pistons +.030 (Used but in excellent shape). One of the eight was damaged and I bought a new one. P/N146997. Step dish design. 16CC dish. 9.6-9.8 to 1 Compression with 64CC heads.
4. This rotating assembly gives you a deck ht. of 9.010". You can use a std. deck block (9.025") or just cut the deck .010-.015" for zero deck.
5. I also have a Std. bore 4-bolt single main seal block. You will need an adapter to fit this crank into the block but this block uses std. lifters for a hyd. roller cam. This saves $$$$ on cam kit.
You will need bearings and rings. I may ahve a set of rings but they will add to the cost. Will sell the rotating assembly seperate from the block.
Rotating Assembly--- $500 w/Block $600.
Block alone--- $150
I have a couple of cams as well. Both Hyd. and Hyd Roller. If your interested. These are new. $100/ea

Re: 383 Stroker Parts
Hey, I need that crank. Hopefully you can seperate? Is it a 400 Crank, or a 383 crank? Thanks!
Re: 383 Stroker Parts
Mike, I've got 2 hyd.roller cams. One is a Crane#119821, 276/284Dur, 112LSA, .480/.509". I'll get the specs on the other later today.
Bradley, I'll seperate the crank for $130. You pay shipping.

Re: 383 Stroker Parts
Im interested. Please send me some pics. Is this a direct swap into a regular 350 block? (I know about clearancing, etc. etc...) What I mean is, would my blocks bearing journals have to be modified? Let me know please

Mike,
No this is a retro-fit cam. However, my other cam is a step-nose cam. If I remember correctly it's a single pattern 239@.050. But I don't rememeber the LSA or lift. I'll get the specs shortly.

Re: 383 Stroker Parts
Bradley,
The crank,rods and pistons are ready to go into a 2pc seal 350+.030 block. Yes there wil be some clearancing involved but this is normal for a 383 deal. You will have a problem with using this crank with 5.7" rods. Needs longer rods to allow piston to crank counterweight clearance.

Re: 383 Stroker Parts
I don't think it matters...retrofit or not... as long as I use the right cam button. I believe any cam for Gen 1 or LTx is fine provided the grind matches my needs.

Re: 383 Stroker Parts
Just a heads up....Those PM rod bolts will probably need a little grinding for clearance to accomodate the longer stroke. The clearance is needed for the cam...unless you use a small base circle cam.

Re: 383 Stroker Parts
These H-beam rods shouldn't need much clearancing for the cam. Depends on lift, lsa, etc. I've used these with a Hyd. roller 289/294, .560" lift w/o any clearancing. But a small base circle will certainly clear.
Bradley, I'll send lics. Have been very busy and haven't been to my shop in a couple of days.

But, How can I use 5.7 rods with this crank? What makes it so different from any other 383 crank?
Thanks.

Re: 383 Stroker Parts
Pictured are your PM rods. Make a note of how the rod bolt holds the cap together. The head of the bolt will probably need a little clearancing to clear the cam. Also pictured is a rod that will not need clearancing. See how the bolt mounts from the bottom up....just the opposite of yours? Photos are small but you get the idea.

Re: 383 Stroker Parts
Yeah...sorry. If the pictures were larger, you'd see the difference right away. It's simple. Your PM rod has the bolt head on top and a nut on the bottom. The other rod has the bolt head on the cap and there is no nut. The bolt threads right into the body of the rod. Where your bolt head is on the PM rod is exactly what needs clearancing.

Re: 383 Stroker Parts
Oh okay. I thought the block just got clearanced to solve that problem...
Either way, can I get a price shipped to 33635?
Thanks.
