My Only problem is im not aware of anyone in north houston that know's mopars. Everyone I have talked to seems to think bb mopars and all old school cars are a thing of the past. If anyone know a person or speed shop please point the way.
The main reason im wanting to do all this is after the rebuild it has not ran good at all. Pop threw exhaust or backfire threw carb. Now it just seems like it loads up under normal driving. Im at the end of my patience with this. So I thought add more power since it will be pulled out for a re...
Very true. It does need to be torn down but it was just to re-seal the motor. I do want a bigger cam because its a stock replacement pupple stick. The pistons are flat top I do know that. I was not wanting to replace anything that does not need to be. Just a good set of heads with larger cam and...
Thats what im going for. I have noticed there are not to many head choices out there and I have read that 440 source ones require machine work or extra parts to work.
I had a budget of 5 to 7 for motor. So I think 500 maybe out of reach.
if i kept my 383 and balanced the rotating assembly good heads and valvetrain with a good size cam, dual plain rpm intake and 800 ish carb. If a guess was given where would I be sitting power wise? Thinking of somewhere...
I cant really give you the specs because my dad got it done I know it was a stock rebuild and I would love a 500 to 550 hp 383. im not out to go racing I just want a FUN and strong street car. The motor is in good condition maybe 4k since rebuild its just a complete dog.
Its not the building of the motor I have trouble with. Its the correct choices of parts. Cam, aluminum vs. cast 904 already ported, carb size. Aftermarket rockers, Ect. Its not that im stupid I was just curious what parts would work best and personal experience on what to do and what not to do...
I have a 69 RR with a 727 trans and factory gears. I have rebuild my 383 before .30 over, but now im going for more power. Im going to rebuild the rearend thinking about 3.73ish ratio.
I am wanting to build a very strong street motor was even thinking of doing a (440 source) stroker kit and a...
I have owned my 69 since i was a freshman in hs. Now that i'm 30 i am starting a restoration on it. My current path is striping it down getting it blasted and primed. I am curious what the thought is on turning my factory 383 into a stroker or just heads/cam/intake? Im looking for serious fun on...
