GM Performance SP383 C.I.D EFI Long Block Crate Engines (PART #GMP-19420885)
GM Performance's HT383E crate engine is an affordable and more powerful direct replacement for the tired 350 engine in your 1996-99 full-size GM truck or SUV. The larger displacement delivers up to 323 hp at 4,200 rpm and a whopping 444 lbs.-ft. of torque. It's extra power you won't get with a stock-type rebuild or reconditioned used engine. Like the standard HT383, this crate engine starts with a cast iron block with four-bolt main caps, a forged steel crankshaft, a smooth hydraulic roller camshaft, and a set of iron Vortec heads. Its 9.1:1 compression ratio is perfect for regular gasoline at all altitudes and engine loads. It also includes a new water pump.
The HT383E is designed to replace the L31 5.7L engine in half-ton models of the Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, Sierra and Yukon. Simply swap the intake manifold, throttle body, exhaust manifolds, and other accessories from the original 350. It's an emissions-legal stroker for trucks!
