I have seen a few things in searching for an answer here and there, that does prove that people have put the GM 383 motors into bigger trucks. Most the info I read says the HT383E motor is a direct swap for a 350, but mostly says in 1/2 ton trucks. I am looking for an answer and/or opinion about putting this motor in my truck, and if it’s possible, maybe a good parts list as well. My truck is a ‘99, CCLB K3500. It is absolutely all stock, with a NV4500 5 speed and 350 motor, with 345,000 miles on it. The truck is still running pretty good, but is starting to get a little tired, so I’m working on getting my list together and mentally prepared to take the plunge, and really hope to add more power over the 5.7, using the 383 if truly it is a candidate for my truck.
Thanks
