We're putting together a 283 for my girlfriends T-Bucket Bracket Car. I've heard it's easy to over cam the smaller cube 283, and wanted to check with the SBC guru's here. Comp Cam recommends their 12-238-2: 218/224@.050 Lift .462/.469 110LSA.
Car has T350 trans - no trans brake. She holds foot brake, and mashes throttle on green to flash convertor, which is stock. Leaves it in drive, for consistency. Big Hoosier tires 4:56 gear. Looking for low end torque and something that pulls up to 5500rpm. Suggestions welcomed!
