Default 383 Stroker?

I am debating about going 383 stroker with my LS1 or going forced induction, I want to run 10s and be a daily driver, Is this possible? Which way of power would be best to go?

STS turbo kit would be the easiest and probably cheapest way to do it.

That'll work too. You just want to go fast? What's done to your car right now?

I don't know of anyone running 10's w/ a stock short block and STS kit.
A front mount turbo, or a S/C, & weight reduction w/ a sticky tire should put you where you want to be.
I wouldn't go w/ a 383, there's better options out there for big cubes at this point (LS2 402 or LQ9 408).
Either way will get you their, but a N/A 402/408/383 will most likely last longer than a FI on a stock short block.
