What is a Chevy 383 Stroker Engine?
As with any stroker engine, the 383 stroker
uses an altered crankshaft to increase the stroke
of the pistons. This increased stroke allows you
to get more air and fuel into the cylinders, thus
increasing displacement without changing engine blocks.
The increased fuel and air means more horsepower and torque!
The Chevy 383 Stroker is an 8 cylinder engine that
uses the popular production Chevrolet 350 block and
a slightly altered Chevrolet 400 crank. A stock 350
has a piston stroke length of 3.48 inches.
The 400 crank changes the 383 to a total stroke
of 3.75 inches. This produces a total displacement
of 383 cubic inches (thus the name 383). This
displacement means that a Chevy 383 Stroker is
capable of drawing in a total of 383 cubic inches
of air/fuel mixture into it�s cylinder chambers
during one cycle of the 8 pistons.
