    moper, IQ52, and other head guys--would like your input...again

    My indecision and lack of ability to actually put hands on this project have again generated questions of which direction to go with this project... After reading many threads on here and most recently the low compression 440 with stealth heads question (posted yesterday), I'm strongly...

    Would any of y'all recommened or use these on your own engine?

    This may sound like a dumb question, but for a mild 383, would you recommend these? http://www.hughesengines.com/Index/products.php?browse=category&level0=QmlnIEJsb2NrIDM4My0zNjEtNDAwIChMb3cgRGVjayk=&level1=Um9ja2VyIEFybXMgJiBBY2Nlc3Nvcmllcw==&partid=27163 The biggest reason I ask is I've...

    Max wedge on 383?

    I'm betting this has been asked before, but I couldn't find anything after a simple search. Can these heads: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1962-MAX-WEDGE-CYLINDER-HEADS-B-BODY-MOPAR-SUPER-STOCK-RONNIE-SOX-/310693595220?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4856c80854&vxp=mtr ...be used on...

    383 in work...slowly, but in work

    For the folks that have replied to my previous posts, thanks-I appreciate your replies and assistance. So, I have made *some* progress...albeit minor. Here's the latest: I have the engine torn down. It will need an overbore, and I was looking at KB 162 slugs since they're about the only...

    Oil pump driveshaft gear question

    Hey all, potentially simple question here...I want to use a hydraulic roller cam in my 383, and from what I can tell, I need to run a bronze gear and every one of them I've seen says not for extended street use. I'd like to be able to run this for exactly that-extended trips if I so desire. Is...

    Another head inquiry...

    Alright, so I've just been searching through the threads, and it looks like I might've wasted some money on a set of 516 heads...apparently the general consensus is that they don't really do any favors for making power. They've been messed with a little, and require some port finishing to smooth...

    1 bolt or 3 bolt?

    Aside from the obvious need to make sure the timing set matches the cam, is there any significance here? Are their certain year models that need a particular type? Are there any drawbacks to running one or the other? Any experiences good bad or indifferent? I read an older thread on here...

    Edelbrock RPM vs. E street vs. Stealth?

    Hey to all the knowledgeable folks on here, in anticipation of building up a 383 for my Scamp, I went about reading on available aftermarket heads and found the usual items; Stealth and Edelbrock. From what I could absorb on all the commentary for the Stealths, the first versions were...

    Likely 383 swap-parts advice requested

    Hey y'all, I'm in the process of buying a 383/727 from another member and would like to drop it in my '72 Scamp. It'll probably be taken down and blasted so I can fix up some body issues too. Some other notables would be swapping in an 8 3/4 with 323 SG (staying with rear drums for now) and...
