Default Magnacharger with 383?

Would the maggie flow enough on a 383 or would it be pointless?
I am making 450/402 now with my magnacharger and cam.

Also could stay with my same cam?
its a LG-5XB ....230's/591/115

what kind of extra power could I gain?

You would definetly want to pulley down with that setup. I think a 383 with vette rear pulleys, and a 2.8 front pulley would be very interesting. As for would it be worth it, how much more power do you want to make? You need to decide on an end goal before you can pick the best route to get you there.

Actually it's been done with good results!, the increased stroke of the 383 really does wonders for the already good torque curve that the mag makes.
