Since the dawn of time there have been folks arguing about whether to make a big bore short stroke combo to spin at high rpm for big power, vs using a longer stroke and more cubic inches to win the race with grunt. But is the stroke actually responsible for the difference in where the power is made? Do these different combinations perform the same if they both make 600 horsepower?

Video Description:

CAN I RUN A 4.8L CRANK IN MY 6.0L OR 6.2L BLOCK TO MAKE A HIGH-RPM DESTROKER? HOW MUCH POWER DOES A HIGH-RPM DESTROKER MAKE? HOW MUCH POWER DOES A 383 OR 416 STROKER LS MAKE? WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO MAKE 600 HP? CAN I RUN 8000 RPM WITH AN LS? DOES A STROKER LS MAKE MORE TORQUE? IS RPM BETTER THAN LOW-SPEED TORQUE? CHECK OUT THIS VIDEO WHERE I COMPARED A 383 (5.3L) STROKER AND 416 (LS3) STROKER TO A DESTROKED LS WITH A 4.8L CRANK. CHECK OUT THE CHANGES IN PEAK AND AVERAGE TORQUE PRODUCTION ON ALL THREE COMBOS THAT MADE OVER 600 HP. WHO LIKES GRUNT AND WHO LIKES TO HEAR THEM SCREAM AT HIGH RPM?
