its s stroker crank that makes the 350 a 364
a 383 stroker is just a 400 crank in a 350 block...so yes
A stroker is: An engine that has had the length of the pistons travel extended through a machining operation or: In the case of a small block Chev you can fit the crank shaft from a different displacement engine into a block and create a stroker. The 383 stroker is a common one. Use a 350 CID block and a 400cid crank and conecting rods to get the 383 cid with out the reliability and life shortcomings of the 400 block. It is also possible to de-stroke an engine to get percise displacement for racing or special operational requirements.
the crank shaft has been changed to alter the travel of the piston in the cylinder
The very basic answer is the crank shaft. There is a greater distance from the main journal and the rod journal on a stroker. This causes the stroke of the piston to be greater from top to bottom in the cylinder. Thus the term stroker motor.
i have a 350 bored 40 over and 400 crank, and been told its a 383 stroker, what is it?
Simply stated the difference is that a Stroker engine has greater than stock displacement due to an increase in the factory crank throw. An increase in crank throw increases stroke (the difference between the piston's top dead center and bottom dead center position).
It depends on which heads whomever built the stroker motor decided to use.
no you cannot bore it to 340 but you can put a stroker crank in it and get to 390, 396 and even more
If I remember this correctly its stock 350 4 inch fitted with the 400 crank and rods.
using a 350 Chevy big block with a slightly modified 400 crank. best be a 4 bolt main too!
350...383 is a stroker motor, a 350 with a 400 crank and cam which increases the stroke and adds .3 liters of displacement.
