Stroker Engines
Stroker
engines increase the stroke of the pistons by using an altered
crankshaft, which increases displacement without changing engine blocks.
This allows more air and fuel into the cylinders, increasing torque and
horsepower.
Carburetors
The
functions of a carburetor include controlling engine speed, combining
gas and air into a combustible mixture, and regulating air and fuel
ratio. Carburetor sizes are measured by cubic feet per minute. A 600 cfm
carburetor, for example, flows 600 cubic feet of air for one minute at
wide open throttle. The higher the cfm, the more air a carburetor can
flow.
Carburetor For 383 Stroker
The
carburetor used depends on the type of engine and the use of the
engine. For normal street driving with a 383 stroker engine, ChevyMania!
recommends a 650 cfm carburetor. A 750 cfm carburetor will make the
engine more powerful, but it is the largest that should be used unless
the engine is being used for racing.
