I'm going to ask you one more time.....

1) PLEASE include info about your car and engine in the "signature" section when you post a tech question. I was under the impression (possibly incorrect) that you had a 3rd Gen with a Gen 1 SBC. What kind of car do you have, what is the year, and what engine is in it?

2) PLEASE post routine questions on the appropriate board.... "3rd Gen Tech", "LT1 Tech", etc.

You have been asked politely by both Ken and me to conform to board rules. PLEASE cooperate, or your right to post will be revoked.

....and would that 383 be based on a Gen 1 or Gen 2 SBC???????

If its Gen 1, post on "3rd Gen Tech".... if its Gen 2, post on "LT1 Tech".
