Street stock build 355 or 383?

[nedayboyz]

Ok....here we go. I am putting together a street stock together. the rules say: must run a Rochester 2g Maximum Venture opening is 1.250, 325 cfm, cast iron 2bbl intake, any cast iron 23 degree straight plug allowed, racing fuel is ok, no cam rule. must weight in at 3300 with driver, but this car is heavy at 3600. I have a 350 4 bolt ready for parts. I done some research and read the with a restricted motor(I.E. small carb and intake) a 355 is more efficient, but I have a heavy car and a 383 should have more torque. I have a marine 2bbl intake from Brzezinski, and plan on running GM performance vortec heads. not sure on what to build, any help will be helpful. Thanks.

id build the stroker,..all the compression you can get too,..an put car on a diet!

What's your budget? If limited build the 350. If you get your chassis right a heavy car can still be fast...

383 would be my choice with as much compression as you "safely" can

A well-built 383 is one of the most versatile motors you can have. Definitely build the stroker and as said before, as much compression as you safely can or legally can have.
