Really thinking a mild 383 for a Street car.
What I will do within two months is LS3 427 or LS7 441 cid longblock ( cannot decide until now ) with a custom cam that feature street manners and power everywhere in my curve.

Another good thing.....you'll be able to afford to drive it because it will be a much more efficient ride.

I have really enjoyed this thread because it bring me back on a couple of levels;
First, I remember just a few years ago when even mentioning anything smaller than a 228 232 was considered a waste of time....leaving horsepower on the table....and worse.
Working with Tony Mamo we put together a mild 220 224 package with the AFR 205s milled slightly and cometic .040 for good compression, and nice quench. Thie setup replaced my F13 and I couldn't be happier.
For exhaust I originally had the GMMG with my headers and catted y but the noise made the car no fun to drive. I tried bullet mufflers, chambered mufflers, the Borla X15 and finally just installed the SLP dual/Dual.....and couldn't be happier.
For the supension, the Hotchkis lowering springs were down about 2" after a few years and every bump in the road was an adventure. I finally went with the SLP eibach/bilstein package and although it sits just a little high.....I couldn't be happier. The ride is smooth, takes the bumps and dips in the road with ease and just plainn fun to drive.
In the end, a good balance of performance and drivability was the key for me and for the last two years I just keep it clean, drive it, and enjoy it!
