Re: Pretty excited about what came today

what cam/induction/headers are you running on your 383? I had dart Iron eagle 195's on my 10.8:1 383 back in the day. She made 500+ ft lbs with the TPI I had on it.

Re: Pretty excited about what came today

We're looking at a custom grind LSM cam, not sure on what specs yet, its going to be carbed, probably a demon 750, as for intake we have a Victor jr, no headers yet, still trying to collect funds for the project. I was looking at dyno dons though.
