    the 383 6.0 is a custom piece

    a typical 383 uses a 5.7 to start off with. yes ppl use 5.3 blocks but first bore them to the specs of a 5.7. to achieve a 383 you need a 4" crank 6.125 rods
    since you dont start off with a 350 and bore it to 355 youll only get i believe 382. a 355 with conversion is more 385

    87 octane you say....so you wnat to skimp on things for a 5 dollar difference between fill ups?

    408 with 600 tq isnt happening. THese are LS motors they dont make torque!!!!!!!! to get torque you need boost. Even some of the baddest 408s arent making 525rwtq
    2002 Lightning - GT headed 5.5Litre w/ Twin 7665s
    2002 Silverado - 427Lsx w/ Twin gt4202s
    2010 Silverado crewcab Z71 - 5.3litre w/ procharger
    2000 Wrangler - 5.3litre with some stance
    2014 Xsport- 3.5 Eco boost
    412 Motorsports

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    So really boring out to 383 would be realistic going for around 450 hp, unless you're boosting?
