383
Eagle crank and H beams
SRP forged pistons with near stock compression
Comp R lifters
Double roller timing chain
Canton oil pan
High volume oil pump
electric water pump
Im sure its also ARP studed but I am waiting to find out
Clevite or whatever bearings
Only has one season on the motor with a few passes and some street miles. Only spun up to 6800 RPM only hit with a 175 shot.
He told me $3600 and he will bring it to my house (he lives about 3 hours away).
On a LT1 intake with a 58MM TB, LE2 heads/CC 306 threw a 3400 stall, TH-400 and a 9 inch on a 10.5 tire it went
11.3-11.4 all day long. On a 175 shot it went 10.0@132 with a 1.41 60 foot and a 175 shot.
Told me with a good tune it will handle a 300 shot easy and the cam is faily mild for what the motor can handle.
Plan is to have a set of heads Race ported for it by a local pro stock builder/porter who does all the fast cars around here. Have him port a Vic Jr or Vic intake, Accufab or wilson manifolds 4 BBl TB, N20 Daves plate converson with a progressive, FAST computer,
Into a Neil chance stall, TH-400 with a brake (local buddy has one), to a full spool 9 inch with 4.10's and a 28 inch tall tire.
Have a local well respected race engine builder spec me out a cam for it.
SHOULD be able to get it in the 9's on the motor pretty easy or at least 10.0's on the motor.
I would also reconsider your TB choice, im a fan of an 'elbow' style setup because the elbow acts as a runner for the intake and creates a bit of torque.
Good Luck though man

Im not dead set on things yet with the intake/TB. Tottaly spaced the lifters beings hydraulic. I won't mess with buying those since it will be a sollid roller.
Whats the difference in the 383 and 396? Just the bore?
If so I might swap the pistons out.
Are any of the SRP forged flat top pistons good?

The SRP's have a higher silicon content and it makes them a bit more brittle and less resistent to detonation. A no non-sense quality build with nitrous or any type of forced induction should stay away from them in my opinion.
SRPs arent a beefy piston either, meaning the ringlands arent lower on the piston itself. Lower ring give the piston added strenght when a power adder is used.
