stroker kit
i have been looking for a stroker kit for my blown up 5.3L. i found Texas Speed has a nice 347 kit but i was wondering if there is a company that sells the 383 kit? i know some of you guys are going to say buy a 6.0 or a 408 but i honestly dont have the money for that right now.

In all honesty, if you shop around you can get a Lq4 or Lq9 longblock and a cam for what your going to spend on a stroker kit alone if its $2274, you still need the tear down of the block and machine work done.
I just went with a stroker shortblock from a builder and am now working on the top end. I spent about 3500 on the shortblock all forged and its a 415. Look at all your options. Stroker or turbo always cost twice of what your budget for.
