With the big block idea smashed( confirmed my opinion as well), what do you guys feel is the best way to go? 383 strokers, or 377 destroked small blocks? On the drag strip I prefer the 383 from personal experience, but I hear the 377 has advantages on the water. Thanks for the input!

I love the look of them old stingers... 
Put a healthy set of sbc's in it. They will run better then decent big blocks will in the boat..
