    Nice ride, don’t see many of these on the road anymore. Maybe in shows.

      Thank you. There’s one really nice red one in my town, but yeah, they’re not very common.

    I think you'll get the bog out with a little more work on the carb. What size converter is it..?

    • @CarGuyV8
      @CarGuyV8  Před 4 měsíci +2

      It’s got a stock Th350 converter in a Th400. So it’s got a touch higher stall speed than a stock th400 but that’s it.

    383's tyically need a higher stall converter. Last 1 i built had to have a 3200 stall with the cam and headers.

      This one is a pretty mild 383 with Vortec heads. It’s more of a torquey truck engine. I ran a 2,500 stall in it in a different vehicle and it was a little too aggressive for the setup.

      Stroke adds torque. Needing a stall is dictated by cam, intake, etc. I've built mild to wild 383's. Some as mellow pass a Smog test type to cammed up rev it 7000. The point is a 383 doesn't need a stall by solely being a 383.
