School me!

I know I could do much faster, but remember I still want it as a street machine, not too much cage work, so when I say 11's, its more because of all the rules when running under 11 an 10.

I want to do the 383 because, I think its a perfect canidate. TRW forged pistons not bored just honed, in the 8.9:1 Cr range, forged crank amd rods, 915 head with the larger valves, single plane intake. I currently have a .509 lift cam with a custom grind, but I dont have all the info on it becaus it came to me from a third party who could not find the info, so I dont know how much overlap or duration, but it runs very strong but has a really good idle for the lift. I may shop for a different cam that is good for a forced induction. Will my current MSD Distributor be okay with a force induction. If a get a Boostmaster, its a pro billet?


I agree wholeheartedly, that a 383/400 is the engine to build, if you want a v8.

I don't know about MSD to a very large extent, but I don't THINK that a Boostmaster is a digital, multi-spark design. I seem to remember that mine came with paperwork that alluded to the fact that it was an analog unit with no multiple-spark capability, and that its output was 42,000 volts, a bit under a 6-AL.

I never have ignition issues, though, with 10 pounds of boost, so it's apparently adequate for my car.
