I would be interested in hearing the combinations. Even if they are Chevy 383 examples that you know of. That is eventually what I am aiming for. A naturally aspirated 383 in an all steel 69 Dart{except hood} doing nines in the 1/4.

There was a guy that posted on here a few years back that sprayed a 383 in to the 9's. TRW pistons, iron heads, and the 557 MP cam if I remember right.

I'm sure there are plenty of low deck's that used to be 383's out there running 9's.

Steve Wann ran in the high nines in his superstock car.Holds the record at 9.54 with his 440 in a 69 barracuda.

Join the club.
I haven't touched a ten *yet*, but I'm sure once I put it on the track it'll be there. I was running 122 and a half with 2.0 60s making power in the last 2/3 track. My setup was 11.50 friendly for sportsman, and let me tell you it was a wicked bracket deal. Had everyone in the class covered by like 6 mph +.
My combo is basic, stock bottom with trws, 440-1s unported, .585 comp solid 1.5/1.6 rockers, 930 holley. All steel 67 Charger up in that 3400 lb area. It did run 11.40s at 118 and 10.8 at 124 on juice with 906s.
fast68plymouth--11.1 123
super451b-- 11.1 120?
1swingin--11.1 121?
There was a guy (Hutch?) that ran a plymouth B with a HOT 383 that ran 9.97? at 137 I believe. He is the only guy running 9s N/A that I'm aware of.
Stroker cranks have their place--- just not in my motor.

Check the class: SS/IA. No 440's in I, that's a 383. The record is altitude factored, which is BS...I doubt there is ANYWHERE at sea level that car go 9.54 in. But I do know that in "good air" the car has been 9.70's in HA and 9.80's in IA.

That's right: a 383... With "stock replacement" heads and a "stock" carb...
