The beginning of the End

Alright, well I have recently bought this 350 block to be machined into a 383 stroker and I really cant whine when I got it for $125.00! But I just wanted to post on here with messages and pictures on how it's going to get some aditional imput (it's always good). and this will be taking the place of me extremly stocky 305 that can be a pain to start, if not started immediatly in cold or humid weather it has to sit an hour, and the 305 has got some power but I want to be putting atleast 550hp out the rear allong with nitrous! and just wanted to get ideas here and their, ao let me know what you think!

O I forgot I am gonna bring this block down to Transfer performance, in transfur pa to be machined hot tanked, I will get more detailed info when I have brought the block down on Nov 30, 2009!
