AI is in Concord, NC. www.advancedinduction.com

There are also a few other reputable places that you can ship them to - a quick Google search should yield a bunch.

My stock castings from ai put down 443rwhp, unported afr will prolly put down similar results. Ai does some bad *** work, you would not be disappointed with their work especially if they did your afrs!

And thats with a little 23x/24x cam

if you go 383, if you get stock heads ported will they be good enough?

Single plan will help once u rev around 7 k . A ported lt1 manifold is considered a great intake and tuff to beat. Not even the ederbrock manifold Cain achieve higher gains.

I have both a stock LT1 and the ederbrock LT4.. But something about the looks and setup of the Vic, I love.. Most people i see running them end up running a SR cam which is one thing i dont want due to driving on the street.. I dont want the hassel really..

You buy them separately.

I wouldn't use such a docile head on a 383+. That's just a waste IMO.

You'd be better off to spend that 383 stroker money on great heads and just do a 355 build than skimp on the heads; heads are where the power is.
