Simple 18 degree head question
Some fully ported 21x name brand heads converted for LT1 with whatever great flowing FI intake and a 383 12.x c/r hyd roller what type of power would it make? This would also have all the average bolt ons etc.

That's what I thought. I was thinking of going solid roller with a single plane while using the stock computer and my Dynaspark but the more I think of it the more it would seem as though I would lose alot of power down low and never be able to take advantage of the power up top.

a 396 with a solid roller and a single plane should get you to that goal if setup right. i would use some nice afr's or sbc converted heads. i havnt looked much at the other newer heads for the lt1 so im not commenting on them as i dont have enought info to say either way.
you couuld get in that range with an ltx intake and hyd cam also

i think you should be over thats with you r current setup, i believe i have read about stock CI motors with good heads and cc306, GM847 go close to 400 hp and beyond.

No way. stock ci motors with H/C Ive seen may hit the mid 300's but Ive never seen any in the 4's. Everyone tells me with this current setup I should allready be in the mid 400 range. I guees we will see if I can ever get it to the dyno.
