GRUMPY?
I am looking for a 383 stroker kit and am trying to decide between Scat and Eagle.
Does anyone have a preference and/or experience with either of these two companies?
If so, can you give the pros/cons that would make one better than the other?
Also, would a 5.7 or 6 inch rod be better for street driving? I have read somewhere if the rod gets too long that the compression height of the piston becomes too short?
Thanks. "
if you wonder why I suggest using SCAT (H) beam style cap screw connecting rods vs stock or most (I) beam designs this picture should show the increased cam to connecting rod clearance

Ive used dozens of SCAT rotating assembly's, building engines for friends,
(mostly the 4340 forged versions) but a few 9000 cast and I have not had any major issues, but Id suggest selecting the 7/16" upgrade rod bolts and connecting rods and having the assembly balanced
Im using a scat forged 6" rod kit with a 4340 crank in my personal 383
