    Question for you car buffs....

    I just got a call from one of are local harley davidson dealers that i won a raffle i bought some tickets for a few weeks ago. They told me i have won a 383 stroker engine dyno tested at 560. Now i have a few questions.

    1: Is this engine street legal?
    2: What does dyno tested at 560 mean
    3: Whats a ball park figure price of a engine like this?

    Thanks for all the replys

          Street legal really depends on state laws and whats been done to the engine. Dyno tested at 560 means they put the car on a dyno machine and the engine came out at pushing 560horsepower. No idea on price. Honestly depends on whats done to it.

            Yes its street legal! The engine is a chevy 350 stroked to a 383 typically the 560 would mean how many foot lbs of torque it has as stroker motors are typically nicknamed torque machines. Engine is valued at a few thousand depending on what piston rods/ pistons etc they used. Bad ass small block engine

              560 hp is a nice kick in the ass for the street and that would be real horsepower, not nitrous etc.. i dont think street legal would be a problem, but you may have emission laws there, im not sure..

                  I think you are the proud owner of a bowtie motor (CHEVY)

                  350 small block.. stroker crank... 383 cu in

                  560 on dyno.. means the motor made 560hp on dynomometer

                  If made with quality High Performance Parts the engine is probably worth
                  more than $5,000.00 and less than 12,500.00

                    383's are dime a dozen, nothing more than a 350 block with a 400 crank. The money is in the heads. 3-5k tops assuming its a complete longblock, carb to oil pan

                      1. That probably depends on what kind of car you put it in. Most likely anything more than 25 years old would be OK, ask how old a car has to be before its exempt from emissions testing in your state.

                      2. 560HP or torque, either way its a hell of a lot for a small block.

                      3. I think 400HP 383's are going for about $5k new, this should be a bit more but it depends on who built it and what's in it.

                      4. Yes I know there wasn't a #4 but I'm putting it in anyway. If you'd like to give it away for much much less than I mentioned above, I promise to find it a good home

                      Congrats man!

                        560hp at the flywheel?

                          560hp is pretty leathel on a bike. I find it hard to believe the enginge would only be worth 5k if it has 560hp (even at the flywheel) but than again I know nothing about harley's. Eitherway congrats!
