Chevrolet Performance Crate Engine HT 383 CID 323 HP 444 ft lbs 19433036

Specially tuned for torque, the all new HT383 delivers great power for trucks and heavy cars in a small-block package.

With its 3.80" stroke and Vortec cylinder heads the HT 383 makes awesome torque, down low where you need it for towing or four wheeling off road.

Peak torque is 444 Ft/Lbs at 3000 RPM, but the HT 383 makes over 400 Ft/Lbs between 2500 and 4000 RPM !

Developed as a high torque engine, with a low end torque grind roller cam, heavy duty forged powdered metal connecting rods, forged crankshaft and hypereutectic pistons the HT 383 is designed to be worked. 323 horsepower at 4200 RPM doesn't hurt either. The HT 383 should only be used in 1979 and earlier pre-emissions street vehicles or any year off road vehicles.
