I would build 383 strokers out of 350's, can get a reliable 400-425hp easily .

the 400's work fine, .030 over 406, good torque, just make sure you talk to a com co. and let them help you get the right cam for that cu in. decent heads will be needed....vortecs not a bad way to go at all....assuming you still have alpha drives try setting the power to come in all by 4800-5000, and be easy on putting on plane....and you will just need the ext balanced std trans flywheel like a 454, Rob
