Default Hello !

Hello everyone ! I'm new to the group ! Hoping to get educated on this amazing new age horsepower ! I've always been a traditional Sbc Bbc guy . I'm looking to do a 6.0 swap in my 1982 Camaro Sport Coupe . Im currently running a traditional Sbc 383 ci. With dish pistons and 062. Vortec heads , a small comp hydraulic roller cam with .555 lift So it makes pretty decent torque right at 500 ft lbs with only 460hp at the crank . But it falls off after 5500 RPM . Im running a Coan th400 with 3000 stahl , and a Hawks custom 8.8 with 3.55 gears . Car runs high 11's on ET street tires . Anyway just giving a breakdown on my current situation so I can document the transition . I will update the new build as it comes together, Thanks for adding me . Good day all !

There are many parts out there for a third gen swap. I have used various ones and can answer some difference questions if you have some. Is your car for street or race only?
