Shopping for a crate 383 to turn it into a drag car.
454 producing 450 hp and close to 500 ft-lb of torque.
a revolutionary car for the muscle generation.
Yup. 1984.
no bro,,,
Get a 350, steel crank shaft, 4 bolt main caps and aluminum heads with a triple angle vale job...

For a dragster you can't go wrong with a set up like this.
My dream car is a '70 chevelle LS 6.
no,,,
the 396 or 427 ,
much faster engines,
The 69 Z28 was THE revoutionary muscle car...
But, one things for sure, any of these bury a pony every day of the week and twice on sunday.
Not a fan of the z28. Don't know why, just not.
do you know the specs of the 69 Z28 with the 302 DZ ?
It is still one of the most powerful engines chevy ever produced...
383 is just a bored out 350. Even a 350 will be enough to force a transmission swap also!
not disagreeing. Just not my choice in cars.
Maybe from my days of growing up around a bunch of rednecks all idolizing the camaro body.
No need to overbore a 350...
the bigger displacemnet does nothing but weaken the cylinder wall.
A steel crank shaft, 4 bolt mains make the motor durable..
And as we all should know it's the Heads that produce the HP...
202 valves, screw in studs, ported AND polished,,,
now that's a beast...
If you gonna swap out tranny's, may as well do it right and put in a ford 9 in rear-rear end.
Blaspheme, I know.
