Ok all you 383 guys out there. I just ordered one 10 minutes ago and now I need to get my sh*t together so I'm ready when it gets here in 2-3 weeks. Now my question isn't where to find one, it's where to find one without spending 250 bucks. Is it possbile? By the way, it's for a late model 350 block,so it's for a 1 peice rear main seal. Anyone ever try and clearance a stock pan? Is this possible, or does it have to be specially cast already clearanced? So links and part numbers would be great if you have any.

Thanks,
Tom

 

I know this is off topic but maybe if you dont mind helping me out here...

I am looking for a place to build a 383 stroker for me, did you provide a shop a list of parts to hav ethem custom build the engine? Or did you select a preassembled motor from somewhere online?

Again, sorry for the off topic post

 

A stock one works fine. You might have to dent it in a place or 2 near the flange, that would be about it.

 

Wheeler motorsports who hosted this auction is who is building it for me. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33615

1400 plus 160 for a one piece rear main seal motor which is what I I got.
