Do you have any track times with the 383cid motor...and like stated above...6.3 liters is what the LT1 guys would label their cars with.

No i havenet got it to the track, my tune is bad, im only pushing 425 hp 418 ft lb. which i think is bad for a 383 even if it has stage one stock heads. I really want to get it retuned. The datalog about made me cry, the dyno guy had it all jacked up....
