not really for bein 18 I AM A SAFE DRIVER ON THA STREET and no i want this car for fun...not fame...iv always wanted a fast third gen and this is ma chance to have one....im building tha motor myself and yes i kno a good bit about engines...my dads and grandpaw are both mechanics...u should really get to kno somebody before knocking them .....but thats just my 2 cents

 

Jegs and Summit sell 383" pump gas crate engines that produce over 550HP?

 

I didn't say anything about 383" motors on my post. I stated Gen 1 SBC's on pump gas. And yes they have those. Don't start a pointless pissing match like you have done on some of the other threads.

 

hold up, ma buget is around 4 or 5 grand.....double that because my moms payin for half so around 9 or 10 grand. and i dont wanna wanna buy a crate motor i wanna build this myself....and i might consider FI if i can find a resonable setup for a resonable price..

 

Thats good you have somone to help. Talk to your dad and grandfather about it old school gear heads have some of the best tricks and knowledge. Oh and calm down I have been 18 and thought I was a good driver too just telling you to be careful.

 

He stated he wanted a 383" motor, as he had the 350 block already. And what Mustang are you talking about!? Pointless pissing match... We were having a discussion on a 383 motor when you come in talking about $10K 400+ ci engines and fictional Mustangs

 

please take it to PM's

to the origional poster:
it CAN be done, my buddy just built a 383 for his truck that should be around 430 at the wheels IIRC.
If you can run high 10.x:1 compression and a 230s duration cam, you can run 11's.


this is what i would do:
and a price of what it will cost (approx)
ARP head bolts - 60
accessory bolt kit - 75-80
comp cams mech roller camshaft (cca-12-000-9) 300
roller lifters - 350ish
pro magnum rockers - 280
hi-tech pushrods - 130
guideplate - 25
1.550 inner fit valve springs - 300
11/32" super locks - 25
rocker arm studs - 63
edelbrock victor jr. aluminum heads (bare w/ valves) - 1150ish
victor ram tunnel intake manifold
w/e your machine shop does for work and such for the short block - say 3k
then you just need retainers - 100ish
valve covers, balancer, timing chain, oil pump, oil pan, and some other things, and you could get to the 450 RWHP mark more than likely, if not - REALLY close, but you would have to rev to 6500 or so

also, that would be probably a 7k setup, but you can do it cheaper with used parts n such
