OK, sorry about waiting so long, I have been a little busy the last week. My budget is around 2 to 3 k before the turbo. I WILL be putting a 383 stroker kit in it. It will be forged pistons and rods. More than likely externaly ballanced. I do not know if it will need bored yet or not. I will be sending the block to a machine shop to do the notches for the stroker kit, bore if it needs it, cleaning, magnafluxed, cam bushings installed, and everything mic'd. I will be runing a garrett turbo, but I am not sure what size yet. That is really my only big question for all of you guys. It will be a street Astro 96'(ya, you heard me). It will be all out done and I want to run about 10 pounds of boost at the most. I am thinking I will be knocking on the door of about 500HP with the boost.
