Well you gotta start somewhere, you learn sa lot building your first motor. Ask all the questions you want, from us, from your Dad, from the guys at the machine shop.
From what I see with the delema you had with the rods strikeing the cam lobes, you have probably figured out by now that a prefit befor any machine or balance work is mandatory.
Oh yeah I may mention that I am currently building a 383 myself, just that I am using the eagle H beam rods that do not hit the cam because of the way they are made you still have to grind clearances in the block though."aerodynamics are for people who cant build engines"
