Default Estimated HP after Stroking an LT1

hi peeps,

what would you think my wheel hp would be if i stroked my 1996 Z28 5.7 LT1 into a 383 ?????

i already have a big MAF installed with an intake system and edelbrock short headers with a flowmaster muff..

and would i be able to do my bottom part of the block only and keep all the rest stock, as in the cam and heads and stuff?

thanks

If you're going to install a stroker kit to a 383, you're going to have the motor out anyway. At this point, you might as well have the heads worked, or get better heads, or get a cam and some valvetrain, etc. As long as it's out, invest a bit into the top end.
Displacement is great, but if you don't have the flow, good luck gettin' more go. I can rhyme
