Hello everyone,
I have taken the heads off my 383 like I was advised to do on this forum and have found this:
I have decoded that this engine was made in 1970 on October 13 during the second shift. R means regular gas - lower non-performance compression.
I believe this motor was a 2 barrel with 290 HP and 390 TQ.
Am I wrong with anything?
From these cylinders,
Do you guys think this engine is a builder or boat anchor (AKA get a 440)?
Thanks!
