In process of replacing my twin 350 4BBL roller cam Vortec (310hp @5000) engines with 383 strokers.
Blocks bored .030 oversize,
blocks clearance for stroker cranks
GM Vortec PM rods used
Scat ProStock 9000 cast cranks
Questions I have, in my attempt to build a "quench" built engine I've come down to either a:
KB135 piston (18cc dish),
KB121 Piston (28cc dish)or a
Speed Pro H890CP (23cc dish).
Deck height is still stock at 9.025" but can be cut to as little as 9.015" in order to maintain a quench of .035 - .042.
9.68:1 for the KB135's,
8.9:1 for the KB121's
9.17:1 for the Speed Pro's.
Head gasket is .028.
Cams will be stock roller marine GM grinds
I'm leaning on going with the SpeedPro's as the compression is about where I want it. I spoke with Scat and they are claiming their cast 9000 series cranks are 25% stronger then the cranks used in marine GM 350's are will be fine in a marine engine build. Anyone have thoughts on what I'm building please chime in.
