Here's what I have. Dirty from sitting all these years

http://www.accurateltd.com/ this is the place to go. Nice stuff. They have factory replacement mufflers or ones that look like them with a little more flow. I bought a whole exhaust system from them for my 67 383 auto.

Now it makes more sense. Pictured would be great. Especially of the bolts and screw so I can get the right ones

Hey Gang I recently bought the reproduction heat shield that protects the brake proportioning block next to the exhaust manifold on factory big block cars. For the life of me I can't seem to figure out how this bad boy bolts up. Anybody out there with a factory big block car have one mounted...

Hey Gang Im restoring my 67 383 Fastback. Im assembling the engine and about ready to put it in. Since I'm using the original exhaust manifolds I need to know which cylinders get the heat shields. Yearone isnt really clear which ones to use. They list one for 66-69 A,B 383 and 440 models which...

Yep, All the numbers are present. If its one of the last ones built maybe they ran out of the correct valance? Or some knucklehead just put on the wrong one. The car is partially torn apart right now. The engine, transmission and whole front K-member are getting rebuilt and detailed right now...

Matt What pieces do you want part numbers and dates off of? I'll gladly look. My car was an ordered California car. It is automatic, monotone-yellow, with black bucket seats and console interior, Factory Tach, 3:23 sure grip rear, disc brakes, and am radio. Not much else is on it. It was...

Well I pulled the heads off and it does have the 915 heads with the large exhaust valve. Bad side is the machine shop who redid them never put in hardened seats and did a horrible valve job. No wonder why my compression was only 125lbs

Matt Ok I checked buildsheet and fender tag. Both say June 9th as a production date. I looked at my block and its assembly date is May 23rd 67

I will check tomorrow on the engine assembly date. I know my car was built on June 9th and I have the original build sheet that I removed from the driver side bucket seat. On my build sheet it says under shipping order 609

Demon seed The C stamping is for the 67 year Yes. But the block casting is 1965. That is what i mean. They used a 383 block that was cast in 65. I'm pulling the heads tomorrow but I think from looking at it they might be the 1.74" valves. I'm hoping but it doesnt make a difference if there...

OMG I just checked the stamped pad. Its stamped C-383 HP. So it is the original engine! They used a 65 block in this thing. How strange! Another cool item is they swapped the 516 heads for 915 HP heads sometime in its life.

Hey Gang I pulled my 383 out of my 67 Barracuda and found out that the block is dated 1965. So I was wanting to put a correct date coded 67 block back in. My question is were the 383's stamped with a H.P. like the 440 blocks or could I use any 383 block with a production date of...

Well whoever rebuilt this motor used KB pistons back in 98 on the rebuild. Im hoping they put the right ones in it. If they didnt they will be coming out. I wanted to stay with the 915's to gain the bigger valve benefit and still keep the compression the same instead of going worse with the 906...

I have a 67 Formula S fastback 383 auto. I'm pulling the motor out to freshin things up and check out what needs replaced. The motor was rebuilt in 98 and is supposed to have around 5000 on the rebuild. The car definitely needs a transmission rebuild and the stall is utterly shot. Im pretty...
