I'll bite...433rwhp@6150rpm and 410rwtq@4600rpm with the 10 bolt/m6 dyno queen combo.

Re: VRE 383 with LE3 Package Finally being Dynoed!!

Man I have a feeling this thing is going to DYNO WELL. 6speed, 10 bolt, Nice heads and a badass cam on a 383 with a 11.9 compression.
HMMMM
Going to say if its on a DYNOJET, around 465RWHP and 435RWTQ.

BTW I like the 108 LSA get a CLIP of this thing.

I dunno maybe I am just Bias but I have a lot of faith in LE's heads as of Lately, on a 383 auto with a 3500 stall with a LE2 head and custom cam in a impala they just hit almost 440RWHP. It may be in the 440 range but It seems this guy has his ducks in a roll, A true duel system would yeild some gains I believe.

I'm not sure but I hope your numbers are high because my mods are almost the same. I made the same thread about my setup but didnt get much feedback. I cant wait to see your numbers. Did you work out all the bugs?

I was thinking the same. Mostly gonna depend on the quality of the dyno tune. I'm still ready to see a 500rwhp hydraulic roller LTx stroker...I think we'll see a couple this year.

Re: VRE 383 with LE3 Package Finally being Dynoed!!

I dont see even 450rwhp in that setup. The LT1 head doesn't have the capacity to feed a 383 to the revs necessary to achieve that kind of power. The LT1 intake, even ported, is a restriction unless you really do some serious work to it like Squinn's LTx.

The only way I could see 500rwhp out of an LT1 casting is a 355 with 12.5 compression peaking at or near 7000rpm with a solid roller and a super vic.

Re: VRE 383 with LE3 Package Finally being Dynoed!!

I am anxtious to see this combo. You are running slightly larger valves than me, but im running AFR's. You got slightly more compression, and a dyno queen 10 bolt, and no cats. My numbers are in the sig, with my ignition problem.. Then again mine is an LE2 combo..

Good point, I agree. I wasn't meaning an LT1 head casting...I was thinking more along the lines of LT4, AFR, and TFS casting. I do think it's possible (and will happen) w/ well built stroker, ported LT4 intake, hydraulic roller, stock pcm.

HotRodHawk on this forum made 505RWHP with LT1 heads (Right at 280 range), 12:5 compression, Single plain, with an auto and a BIG HR cam at around 7000 I believe. A well down LT1 head can do it, put it takes a nice size cam and A nice intake "cough" single plain to do it.

Last time I talked to him Denny Mcclain made 485RWHP with his 385 with LT4 intake and heads, with a HR in a 6-speed. I think I actually have the graph is someone wants to host it.

I dont see even 450rwhp in that setup. The LT1 head doesn't have the capacity to feed a 383 to the revs necessary to achieve that kind of power.
A few have hit that with heads that were not even worked over that well on Stock Bottom End N/a Cars.
Sar2k comes to mine in this application, 445RWHP with a stock LT1 shortblock, 248/254 HR cam right at .600 lift, ported LT1 heads and intake, by himself that peaked at 250CFM . Theres something going on there besides head flow you think, lol. made max power at 6600 RPM

As far as LT1 heads being able to support a 383, I think it all depends on the flow characteristics of the head, and along with many other attributes.
B/c there are some pretty strong Lt1 383's out there.

What type of springs is in this setup, and retainers.
And you need to get a EWP, specially since this thing will spend to 6700-7000.

Comp is about to come out with a new Beehive spring that will handle a lot more lift than the .600 918 springs. Don't ask me how I know this, lol
