now that there is trouble with my engine and it needs work , I looked into having a stroker kit put in . A pretty reliable builder here in town quoted me 1600.00 for a 383 kit installed . the kit is from Eagle . the other option I have is to have it repaired here in town by a marina that is going to do me a little favor but it is still going to cost the same . the stroker engine is a different block and uses a flat tappet cam versus the roller cam i have now . i will re-use my vortec heads , his son owns a head shop here ans is going to put in stronger springs and stainless intake valves . opinions would be welcome .

Smoke, IMO, I would find your original problem first, then worry about the future....
