RustyRatRod's Guide To Hot Rod Bliss

Yes, a 383 would be great, but I can't find one for super cheap (still looking) that is complete enough to reuse some parts. like keeping the stock heads and just porting them, or just putting a new piston and arp bolts on a stock rod. it seems that they are just bare blocks, or fully assembled race motors. I can't find one in the middle. I will see what I can find in 4 months while saving enough money to build one, but the 440 is there and complete. plus the guy has all the parts to build it in his garage.
Check the for sale ads daily in as many forums as you can, they pop up CHEAP all the time. I got one for 100 bucks last year
