Hi I am getting my 67 383 built and I was trying to get close to a magnum in performance.
I have 915 heads but they are 1.6 exhaust valves, I know they are not the best but I think they will be fine for my purpose. I have a 1968 -69 4bbl intake, edelbrock 650 avs2 carb, a melling class 2 camshaft, and hp manifolds
I am in the process of rebuilding right now but my engine is going to be put together with silvolite 1271 pistons, this has got me a bit worried as I kinda wanted speed pro 2315's for the higher compression.
I am just a bit worried about the silvolite's being de stroked and too far in the whole? I just really just want a good running engine and maybe I am better of with the silvolite pistons but I don't want to suffer in performance at the same time...
Anyone got any suggestion? Probably not the only one using these pistons so any feedback would be great.
Thx!
