[93-2dr-on20s]

I got a line on a 383 stroker for cheap. Question is, would I need to have a chip burnt for it to work properly in my truck? Here are the specs I got from the seller.

Performance valve springs with retainers
High volume oil pump
Double roller timing set
Flat top hypereutectic pistons and moly rings
New Harmonic balancer

High performance stainless steel valves: 1.94 Intake; 1.50 Exhaust
High performance bearings
Fel-Pro performance head gaskets

It also comes with an Edelbrock intake manifold, Edelbrock shorty headers, MSD distributor, Fairly new starter, and I'll also throw in the TBI as well.

Definitely going to need tuning.

Yepperssss....

It's my understanding that pretty much anything beyond stock specs will require a good tune and/or re-chip.

Yeah, I figured as much. Does the ECM in a '93 control the tranny, too or is it a seperate control module? In other words, can I have the chip programmed to control my shift points, speedo etc...?

You will NEVER get a TBI 383 to run right. Ask Green95Hoe.

TBI is untunable and garbage in general.

Save your money and do a 5.3 or 6.0 swap.

Please please don't do it. Why do you think it is for sale for cheap?

I'm really looking to do a plug and play swap with more power. I need to read up on the 5.3 and 6.0 swaps to see what exactly is involved. I don't want to break the bank, either.

you could run a carb....i guess lol. let me know if you find any info on the transmissions you can run behind a 5.3. i have one but its on the back burner!

I hate carbs!!! Lol. Never had any luck getting a carbed motor in perfect tune. Decisions, decisions......
