Well just out of curiosity, I may just price out what it would cost to "stroke it".

theres an article in this months Mopar Muscle-a simple 906 headed 383 with a mild Comp Cam (~.500) a dual plane intake and a 750 carb and a good tuning will put a 383 into the 425 HP/500 ft/lbs neighborhood. Thats plenty for a fun street driven musclecar. $3K more or less depending on your local machine shop.

It doesn't take a lot of high dollar parts to get power out of a big block.




I'll have to check that one out , I'm doing an on the cheap rebuild of a 383 for a friends Road Runner and that may be the ticket for what he wants .




You can do mine also as it was pulled out of the car this weekend.

Now all I have to do is find choose a slow or fast shop to do the work.
