I am currently building a 383 to go in my 89 c1500 I have dart heads 2.05 1.06 w/ 64cc comb. chmbrs and 180cc runners mild porting with a weiand x-celerator intake and. Headers of coarse ... I haven't got a cam yet but I'm planning on low 500's lift I currently have and edelbrock 600 and I'm wondering if that will give this motor enough juice I'm not planning on bringing it to the track but I also don't want it to starve... will this combo work well???? Any help would be great Joshua Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
switch intake to a airgap ...a 750 dp holley and a little 555/292 lunati solid roller. will make good power all around and still be driveable. about a 3500 convertor and your good. a hyd roller will be a better street wise cam but had good results with the combo mentioned...205 seems big for a 180 head
Have a made a mistake with my post??? There seems to be a lot of tomfoolery lol... Thanks for the info I am pretty much out of money at thus point and pretty much stuck with what I have and im wondering how its going to be... I really didn't have a choice with the heads I thought the 2.05 was a little large but didn't think it to be a huge difference was a wrong??? Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
You made the mistake of saying "89 c1500" if you said tupperware '32 ford on street rod chassis you'd be offically OK(not that i agree) This is supposed to be a traditional pre65 hot rod forum....
I think a 750 will be fine too. BTW next time just leave out the part about the 89 truck just tell them it's for a Gasser then they will love it.
Lol oh.... I meant my block is out of an 89 lol thanks... Any body have a 700 or 750 kicking around for cheap money?? Holley or Eddy Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
are you lucky enough that its setup for stock hydraulic roller cam...? (that would be a long shot... but you never know)
