Yes indeed. It's a great choice for a truck engine, gobs of torque. Get A copy of the 2007 GM Performance Parts Catalog at your Chevrolet dealer. The part number is 19170580. Many parts choices for that particular combination. A 383 is supposed to be a 4.030 bore and a 3.750 stroke. If you math it out using the formula pi = 3.14 times the radius (2.015) times (2.015) = 4.030 = 12.6542. 12.6542 times the stroke = 47.45325 X 8 = 379.626 cubic inches. So where's the advertised "383". Some crankshaft company's make a 3.800 stroke crank. With the above 4.030 bore the math spits out 384.687 cubic inches. I haven't figured out who's kidding who yet!

you can put a 383 crate engine into a silverado, but it looks like you may have to find someone at a local machine shop to make you custom motor mounts, good luck finding a set i just looked for bout 45 mintues and couldnt find any once again, wish ya the best

ya mean, does it fit in the engine compartment ? does it fit the existing motor mounts ?
yes is your correct answer, the cylinder blocks are the same basic casting. the c.i.d. of the cylinders is the difference.
383cid cylinders are .060" larger diameter than the stock 350cid.

Sure does. Be careful if your state has strict pollution laws. If the cam is too radical, it wont pass smog inspection.
