it proves that you were young and dumb and all you was doing was spinning your wheels.

Had Goodyear 14.5X32 slicks on it for the STREET!!!! My buddy Randy called it " The Mystery Machine"---- Everytime you grabbed a gear it was a mystery what direction you were gonna go !!!! But hey, we all gotta be young and dumb once, right??????

I GUESS I CAN'T. MUST HAVE CABIN FEVER FOR SURE. I THOUGHT THIS WAS A SMALL BLOCK CHEVY FORUM. WHEN I SAID 383, I AUTOMATICALLY THOUGHT WE WERE TALKING SBC.

What the heck did any of us do to cure cabin fever before we had computers???

350 h.p. for under a $1,000 ?With shop rates at $70 per hr. or more I don't really see how this is possible.Maybe 20 yrs. ago.

Have you ever been to a machine shop and checked prices?I really wish it where that simple.So are you saying you just hone the block?What about boring it?What about checking it for cracks?You are forgetting about 95 % of the machine work.

i know them all thats why its cheaper ive had lots of 283 bored to .125 round 6 and none of have ever had cracked walls or anything. for an el cheapo build like that you dont need to machine the heck out of it anyway! BTW im not oging to sit here and fight with you like the 3rd grade you build yours for you i build mine for me DROP IT! just funny when people feel the need to talk out of there ass when they have never built a 301-302-283 HAVE YOU? and dont say you ahve just to say it. this place is now like work!, boring and full of morons. j/k

I am sorry it took you so long to respond.I guess you had to check a few things out with dear old dad.Don't get so up-set when you are wrong.We are here to help.You might want to check -out a few things when you make a post like this.

no i just have better things to do then sit here and take a load of abuse from people who have never even built the motor in question. i go through this shit about once a month i think ill just stop coming to the forum because it really is getting old. ive been here for a long time but enough is enough. im just tired of of it. you wanna continue to spout talk about something you have never built only read about and read that it was a bad little horrible motor thats your problem. but lemme tell you something they arent bad little horrible motors they can run hard. period. GOOD DAY!
