Lets build a 383... Well I've bought a 383 setup off craigs list.. previous owner lost interest in build and short block sat bagged in his shop for a couple years ...
I paid $1,000 for
Cast scat crank (not using) sold, replaced with new forged eagle*
forged 6"Eagle H-beam rods
forged flat top SRP .030 over pistons
4 bolt mains, cyl walls fucked,need rebore, sold, replaced**
Moroso oil pan
Cam motions cam: 247/254 @ .050, 572 intake, 576 exhaust 112lsa,(not useing,for sale)
i'd like to end up with 400+hp to the ground ...i have full suspension & tires
I plan on using LE Port & Polished stock heads with suitable springs,My 1.6 crane gold RR's and a suitable converter thru my 700r4 and stock 10bolt w/3.23's ... i realise that the trans and/or 10 bolt wont last but i'll cross that bridge as i get there .. I would rather put the motor in service and not have it sitting on a stand in my living room even if it means taking it easy on trans for now...

I wouldn't try to run a cam in that condition. I'd make the investment to get a cam suited for your specific combo anyway. Great deal you got though! That's not a steal, that's pure robbery! Also, that's one clean ride!
