It's not an SBC, It's a BIG block!

Doesn't look any bigger then my 350.... not fair.

Look a little closer. Your heads are knowhere near that big on an sbc.

Yeah thats the only thing that sets it off, but my fuel pump is bigger!!!

BIG is always good... hehe

Mine: Chevy SB 550HP Fuel Pump - PN 1042 with vapor return option.

I've got a QA1 STB #5227 on backorder.

I don't know if they make mine anymore, I just searched for it, I have a edelbrock victor series I believe it was 220-250GPH, highest fuel pressure I got it too was like 10psi? Not sure, haven't ran my motor in 6 months cause its in pieces. Had a regulator too

Hey Project, don't forget that you would probably need to get some decent heads on that setup also to handle that type of intake. Unless that intake has some very small ports on it. And since it would be mostly for street anyway, maybe look at getting some smaller carbs like a couple of 390s or some 450s. They would work better for you on the street and would probably get maybe better gas mileage from the smaller carbs and might be even easier to tune. This is just a suggestion.

Jupiter, that is a really nice setup on that 383. How much torque does that motor have and that T-10 handles the torque pretty well I would imagine. Tires probably break lose pretty easily when cruising around 30 mph and just step on the gas will probably break those tires lose easily I'd imagine.

my heads have alot of port work done, so there fine for the tunnel ram, as for carbs, the 500's are good. i called edelbrock and gave them my specs on the engine and they told me the 500 avs carbs will work great.

Scary when wet OR dry... hehe
Seriously yea it breaks lose pretty easy. I originally built it for NOS but decided
not to go in that direction so it's not all that. It benched right at 430HP -
460ft/lbs. It's all forged lower end with Trickflo aluminum heads. The tranny is
the last piece of the drivetrain that is factory 'rebuilt' and still holding up
'unbelievable'. Anyway next time i will know to build for HP rather then torque
on a 3rd gen. Untill i got some Nitto 295/40 in the rear i hadn't felt any
tracktion.

ok thanks for all ur guys input. my car is a daily driver. the heads are 202 camel hump ported and this motor loves stamped rockers. she has no problem hangin at 7k. the carbs lol yes there a little big, do i care? not at all. im running c12 (what a beautiful smell) a tko 600 a ten bolt with moser axles and 4.10's.shes a animal and loves getting beat on. but u guys are right its not a track car but it wasnt built for it either. and project i love your car nothing like seeing a third gen spilling out the hood

just about ready to paint car now

Nice! Do you have any pictures of the driver's side of the carb showing the throttle linkage setup? What throttle bracket is that? Are you running a drop base air cleaner?

The throttle bracket is a Jegs part if i remember correctly. The air cleaner
is a K&N Extreme with drop base 14"x3".

There's mine, not done under the hood just yet.

It's not in the car yet, but you guys get the idea.
Edit: before you guys ridicule me for my plug to distributor wire sequence, it's a corrected cap haha.

Looks like your fan is on backwards...

It's a mild homebuilt 350 with original computer controlled Quadrajet carb. I tweaked the secondary rods and hangers, and opened AV valve further to handle the extra cubes of the 350. Awesome response and pulling power. 20 plus hiway mileage too. Love my Quadrajet!

hey all, in case yall havent read my other posts i am in the process of rebuilding a 95 350 .30 over with vortecs and a performer intake. my question is where are yall with similar set ups running the heater hoses and where did you mount the coolant temp. sensor? thank you

I used a 89 TPI car heater hose pipe and with a combination of 90 degree hoses
i was able to get the heater valve OFF the motor. Generally the temp sender
for the gauge is on the left side 'drivers side' head and the cooling fan sensor is
on the right side head.

Heater valve...

in that pic where that 90 is, that is where my coolant temp senor is. thanks

forgot to mention i do not have the nipple access on the water pump. im using a reverse flow water pump.

A little dusty my car has been in storage for the past couple of years, I snapped these pictures a couple of weeks ago, 383 with vortec heads.

Leakin a little power steering fluid...

I to have the reverse flow water pump with the serpentine. The water pump
heater hose outlet is plugged up. I routed the water out the manifold into the
heater valve. The heater valve sends water to the heater core or to the
radiator depending on setting. My 82 bird didn't come with a heater valve so
this was my way of adapting one and keep it off the motor. Here is the finished
product...

She's Coming Along....

All done!

Where did you find that dual snorkel?

I saw that at jegs. But its easy to make ur own. Just find another
single snorkel and Fab it. Easy as pie.
.

I bought it used. It's a kit from www.ramairbox.com

heres my little 406, afr heads, vic jr intake, dyno dons headers, holley 750, 11:1 comp, big solid roller cam

Here my lil dirty ugly 305 that i want to swap for a 350 bored .30 over with a mild cam and holley 4 bbl carb 750 vacuum or DP 4 bolt main with vortec heads ported and polished with MSD ignition and msd 6al with hooker headers and a 700r4 tranny BUILT

thats a beautiful engine....

Nice joke there! maybe a engine pull and degrease engine bay and paint Red! along with refurbishing parts!

I made that comment while looking at a beautiful engine and when I posted it, it came up here... oh well, preasure wash .LOL

Nice. nah new motor

383 stroker, '92 World Class 5 Speed with a full Moser 12 bolt / 3:73's

all that money on the stroker and rear, why put in the t-5?

Maybe he is saving cash for a new trans.

Also I bet if that is the case he is probably taking donations from everybody who thinks he is taking to long

Carbed Lt1 vortec bowtie heads and forged internals and 750 double pumper

Very nice! Where did you get those valve covers?

Here is a 350 from an 80 camaro in my 84 trans am.

id loose the triangle of death aircleaner and get something that will flow better than a straw.

First time in all these years I've actually seen a Ramairbox in action.

...if I didn't already have a goodmark cowl hood i would run one of those.

very nice!

I like It I made mine.

Auggie

Updated pics.
I got my QA1 strut tower brace on and finally did the 4th gen water bottle mod.

That looks nice. How much was the bottle and brace

The QA1 STB was like $140. The coolant bottle was like $30 on ebay.
better pic...

I'm running the Doug thorley long tubes. They have 1 3/4" primaries and 3" collectors. They fit good but had to use exta flange gaskets on drivers side to get spark plug clearence on the #7 cylinder. And you have to lift motor out enuff to install em
