OK,
I have a 383 in my 74 Road Runner
It was rebuilt back in 95 or so, and has VERY few miles on it
(less than 6000) It was built with "flat top" pistons, stock
"smog" heads, a Mopar "Purple" .509 lift cam, and a Performer
RPM intake, and Performer carb..
It's got a 4 speed and 3.91s and it needs more get up and go..
I should have about $3000 or so to dump into it.
I can pick up a running used 440 with transmission for $600
but would have to have it rebuilt I would think, so that would take
a fair chunk of the money.
I was looking at Edelbrocks power package
but that shows 417 HP, 421 ft/lbs TQ
and cost $2275 but I have not found any dyno graphs
and I would think for that price I could make more.
This is just a street car, so low end grunt is more important
than power at 7500rpms
Anyone have any 383 combos?
