Chevy 383 Crate Engine by Tuff Dawg Engines

1988-1991 Corvette with TPI (Tuned Port Injection)

If you are looking to upgrade that old, tired Chevy 350 and bolt in extra horsepower, this aluminum head stroker crate engine by Tuff Dawg Engines would be an EXCELLENT choice! With 440HP @ 5250rpm and 480 ft lbs of torque @ 4500rpm it has a fairly smooth idle with a lope, and good all around power. It works well with either a manual or automatic transmission. This TPI fuel injection engine will run on leaded or unleaded premium pump fuel and pass emissions.

The balanced rotating assembly (typically includes crankshaft, pistons, rings, connecting rods, rod bearings, and balancer) featured in this engine:

  • 3.750" stroke crank
  • 5.7" forged rods with ARP rod bolts
  • 10 to 1 compression hypereutectic pistons

More special features of this engine include:

  • Seasoned 4-bolt main block
  • New CompCams hydraulic roller cam with .530"Int/.536"Exh valve lift
  • Aluminum tuned port heads with 1.94"Int/1.500"Exh stainless valves with undercut stems for improved flow
  • New 1.250" high performance springs setup to match cam
  • New Chrome moly retainers and hardened keepers
  • New High temperature positive valve seals
  • New Valve guides
  • New 4140 screw-in rocker studs
  • New CompCams 1.6 roller tip rocker arms with balls and nuts
  • New Hardened push rods

  • New Perfect Circle rings
  • New Heavy duty timing set
  • New High volume oil pump with welded big pickup screen and steel drive shaft and steel guide
  • New 1-pc design molded rubber oil pan gasket with load limiters to prevent over-tightening and higher temperature resistance than standard cork-rubber gaskets
  • New Brass expansion plugs
  • All parts are painted separately before assembly for show quality looks
  • No need for a special flywheel or flexplate like other 383's you see, this engine is balanced so that you can reuse the flywheel or flexplate off of your engine
  • This engine requires you to use a modified computer chip, throttle body, injectors, and adjustable fuel regulator (Not included)
  • Valve covers may be different than pictured

This engine comes completely assembled with oil pan, timing cover, harmonic balancer, valve covers, and an aluminum TPI intake manifold.

This engine is covered by a 12 month, 12,000 mile written warranty.
