yup, lets see what heads you have..... too bad we dont know if it was a stocker rebuild or if it was a performance rebuild.... at least then you'd know something other than castings on the block and heads.....just because your car is faster, doesn't mean i cant outdrive you... give me a curvy mountain road and i'll beat you any day

This may help you with what various combinations will do. The cam may be the heart of the engine, but the heads are its lungs. The combination of the two make your power. My 383 is based on Combination #15.

From what I've been told the rebuild was done by a votech school
So it was probably a stock rebuild . (If it was done right at all..)
Thanks Rumrumm that is just what I wanted to check out, when I've got more info I'll post it.
By the way Techinspector1 - I'm gonna order 2 sets of gaskets just incase they change thier minds...

Hey guys, got the engine this weekend in the snowstorm (that was fun...)Here's what I've got.. cast # 3970014 K17/72 ( 350 SB madnufactured in Canada 1972) The #'s on the cylinder head are 898893 (best I can determine, there is alot of grime in there) the heads seem to be stock, but I can't find any info on them.. anyone have a way of finding the stock HP and Torque of this engine? Thanks!
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
