Which engine do you guys think is better for a turbo setup??

 

Glad you asked this question.. I was wondering the exact same thing

 

Yup, cause I dont know if I should mess with my 5.3 or make a 370 out of a 6.0..

 

370ci. Shorter stroke is better for boost.

 

This^^^^ the 370 is the best around lately.

 

Pro and coins between the both?

 

I was wondering the same thing i posted something on the pt.net facebook group but my question was 370 or 408? i got the lq4 on a stand tore down.My opinion go 6 liter you probably will eventually anyways.

 

Your going to spend 1500-2000 more on a 383.

 

Other than a smaller stroke being better for boosted applications....

A 370ci Iron block will be much stronger and have more material between cylinders vs. a Iron 383ci, which is great for boosted applications. 370 will last longer (shorter stroke), rev higher (shorter stroke)....starting to see a pattern here, lol.

 

A 370 also has a larger bore size which = more cylinder head choices.
