Convince me 346 or stroker?
I am in a dilema trying to decide between the two. I think I will be able to use my current heads with custom pistons to reduce cr with a stroker but something inside is telling me to stick with the 346 especially since I already have alot of parts that I know work well with a 346, heads, cam, headers, TB, ETC. I am going to have to do a rebuild either way and with the eagle cranks a stroker really wont be tha much more money but like I said my better side is telling to stick with cheaper more often built 346 mainly for cost and reliablitly reasons.
So I ask you 346 or 383 which way should I go?

hmm 2 for the 346 I am kinda leaning that way myself. It just seems like it would be so much more cost effiecient plus everybody is doing research on the 346 not the 383.

I was debating between the exact same two myself. I ended up going forged 346. I didn't think that the Eagle parts have been out long enough to justify putting it in my car. They make great products for many other applications, but I like to have some assurance. I will probably take some flaming for saying that, but I would rather stick with proven parts and not have to wonder....and with the money you save, you can buy other stuff......

LOL I'll never be able to keep up with the big boys and if I could they would just get something better. Im wondering if I just need to be humble(safe) and keep the 346. We'll see I still have some time left before I have to decide.

i would also go with a 346. if you were going to spend the money on a stroker, honestly i would say save a little bit more money and go with a big bore with stock crank setup.
