Might want to add a few go fast mods to the 383 in my 62 Newport. The cam I m looking at is MP 4452993 .474 lift, 238@.050 110lsa. Was also leaning toward a Performer RPM intake and 750 Holley, and maybe steel shim head gaskets for a little added compression. Planning to run a 3.73 or 3.91 rear and stock converter. I'm sure a little more converter would be better overall, but this is going to be on a budget just to have a little extra fun vs the stock 383 while I gather parts for something bigger.

Anyone else running this cam and did you find it to work OK with the stock converter? Years back I ran a MP 284/484 with stock converter in it was a little weak getting up to speed. Thanks, Tony
