Re: 383 done

Sounds like a mild cam for a 383. Why didnt you go a lil bigger? Sorry, just kind of new to the forced induction world for LS1s, trying to learn more.

Once again, awesome car.

Re: 383 done

it has to do with the supercharger. I forget the reason, something to do with overlap and stuff like that.

Cool, learn something new all the time. Love to see your car sometime. I usually head to Colorado 1 or 2 times a year.

Re: 383 done

sounds nice! That really doesn't sound like a 218/224 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> are you an all bore 383 then???
my 382 stroker had a 224/224 cam and it sounded about stock. You've got a pretty decent lope in there, just curious.... I have a 236/232 in mine now and it's doesn't sound that much more aggressive than yours.
