    383 build?

    The .039 is what I was referring to as “regular” you could do that sure but that would be a shame. I’d be more inclined to either mill the block some and run the .039s and pick more fitting parts throughout to compliment it. KB162s are available now on summit for you 4.290 bores, they ‘should’...

    383 build?

    I think if you go with those pistons you are going to wanna change more in your equation. For starters the compression height is 1.912 which is .008 lower than the 2315s not bad but with the thin gaskets you are barely in the the territory of chasing quench with out having the block decked...

    383 build?

    Your piston have a 23cc dish, with your monster stroke crank and a 78 cc head that equates to 9.65:1... pretty good. Now change nothing else but the crankshaft and a rod to get it to the top of the bore / or wrist pin location.... and you have an 8.05:1 compression pile of trash. How does stroke...

    383 build?

    I did check it, but with a borescope turning the motor over watching the events. There was never anything remotely close needing further investigation. So i sent it, alot. I do intend on having the heads off this summer before my #MoparVsBrandXstreetcarShowdown this fall in Alabama so Ill try to...

    383 build?

    The 2315s have taken me from Alabama to: Washington DC, Dallas, Kansas, Virgina Beach, Philadelphia, Myrtle Beach and everywhere inbetween. Ive ran them hard, overheated, out of fuel, previously before the 915s with garbage valve seals/guides on the OG 440source heads and even had a dead...

    383 build?

    I had the block decked .020 which actually brought me to .002/.003 out of the hole. Head gaskets are just standard .039 Felpros. The cam is the Hyd roller below, I use solid roller lifters and Harland sharp rockers with lash around .005 cold. I do not have the measurements you are asking for as...

    383 build?

    I have 2315 pistons in my zero decked 383 w/915s, i also run a cam bigger than .500 with no reliefs. It's .534 on the exhaust which is the closest one to interferance (and its not even that close) using a 1.74 valve. Cam is 274 int./282 exh. I shift it at 6000 and it gets street used all the...

    383- How fast have you made one run in a B-Body?

    Just talking 383, not your stroker. What is the fastest E.T. you have turned either 1/4 or 1/8. I'm running mine, and dynoing mine next weekend at the #MoparVsBrandXstreetcarShowdown in AL. I suspect I will be able to outdo my showing from last year as I had a reaction ring in the trans break...

    Mobile Dyno on hand... here are a few combos we are gonna put to the test Oct 19th

    Its the last minute thrash to do this again 10/10/2020. My Super Bee, the Satellite, and GTX are all players and have been massaged over the year. Sadly my brothers Coronet R/T will have to sit this one out (block cracked above starter) But the rest of us will Dyno, Weigh, and Race! I know my...

The track will be busy all day and the cruise is set to leave the track at 11:45am and returning...

    7sec 1/8 mile B-Body Streetcar... What combo got you there?

    Few things, freshened the trans up with better clutches and had the PTC converter loosened up alittle and went to annular boosters in the carb. Also will be using new tires which will be a hair shorter.

    7sec 1/8 mile B-Body Streetcar... What combo got you there?

    Looking towards race day, hopefully the car speeds up. It hasn’t been on the track all year but that will change soon. Gotta get ready for 10/10/2020

    Come Racing in Alabama this October, MoparVsBrandX streetcar showdown

    The race is still on, this year has been one for the books but we feel the right thing to do is keep looking to make the #MoparVsBrandXstreetcarShowdown a success. I hope some of you come down and race with us!
