If you read everything else I posted its not a stock rebuilt 383. The only thing thats gonna be stock is the block itself and the hi-po manifolds, thats it.

I already listed everything that won't be stock such as the stealth aluminum closed chamber heads, the performer rpm or M1 dual plane intake, the carter comp carb, raising the CR to 9.5:1, converting to a 3.55 gear. I dont know how in the world all of this is a stock rebuild for a 383. The only draw back to the whole set up is keeping the AC pump. Other than that I have manual brakes so vacuum doesn't mean a thing to me and a 4 speed which means no torque converter issues either.




The original 284 cam (2035) has low vacuum so if no power brakes you should be fine. However your mentioned Carter 750 carburator, I would recommend a Holley as the Carters/Edelbrock don't like low vacuum and are difficult to tame the idle. Has to do with their metering rods and pistons design.. Besides a Holley is just simpler and EZ to tune..

Just my $0.025..
