magnum is about 4lbs lighter than dragonslayer and also has smoothed and profiled counterweights.........the stealth crank im not too familiar with.....i think its a slightly older callies crank.....i though some of them were 5140 forgings and not nitrated but i could be wrong......im not familiar with the stealths

A budget 383 will run you around $5000+ in just the motor, not to mention the mods needed to use it and put it to the ground. I've been building since feb'11. And there is no "kit" there may be rotating assembly "kits" but that Is just the tip of the iceberg ..
If it bothers you don't reply to my comment! Am pretty sure you need it help on something you didn't now!! And am sure I won't spent no Moore then 5,000..

tpis built me engine at first about 3 or 4 years ago and they said the stealh can hold more hp than the dragonslayer. i never heard of magnum and i think i paid like 2400 for it if i remember it and my engine was built to handle 400+ shot of nitrous. now i have twin 72mm turbos

Nothing wrong with suggesting a search. There is a thousand times more information compiled in a ton of forums that will yield FAR MORE info than this one puny thread.

Alot of people are ignorant of the search feature. Fortunately LT1s have been around for almost 20 years now - there's literally gigs of information out there on how to build a proper 383.

No, not google.... On the top of the site there is a search function. It will search all posts that date back to when this site began. Just trying to save clutter....

I did some research on yellowbullet and found that the dragonslayer and magnum cranks are made from the same base forging, but the magnum has extra lightening and hand knife edging like you said.
