I posted earlier about kind of liking my 283. My only reservation about the 283 is the piston weight. Go to the Kb-silvolite website and do some research. There is plenty of room inside for atleast a 6 in rod and even a 6.25 but nobody makes stock shelf item pistons for that. Now at 1.9 rod/stroke ratio a 283 doesn't really "need" longer rods, but it sure could use lighter pistons, and a longer rod gets you lighter pistons. If I'm going to throw heavier pistons up and down, it just as well be a larger bore, with a higher pin height, hence longer stroke, longer rod too. Any Thoughts anyone.........?????
