383 pros and cons.

[SSlowBoat]

I like the total 180 part the best lol yeah from what I'm reading that 400 is a lot easier and I can still get to 600 with nitrous so my end goal is there. And I know LE2 is the route to go so....I just need to look at a good rotating assembly.

Fyi @Ltconvert low compression blower cammed le2 383 made 490/490 on an engine dyno na, blackbird has better heads and a little lighter rotating assembly andnmade 525 on the engine dyno na

Damn thats awesome I would like close to 500 but so far 400 is what seems to be best way to start then just add from there lol

Thru a 6spd its easy, auto a little more difficult

$/HP starts getting really high when you abandon the stock bottom end. For example, adding $2000 heads and cam on a stock shortblock can add 100rwhp, or $20/hp. Going to a 383 with that same top end may give 40-50hp, but costs $3000, so about $60/hp. You can make some of that back up with a stronger bottom end by now adding a 150 shot for $1000, with a grand total of 200 extra hp for $4000, or about $20 per hp. Then however you need to add a new rear end because although that 10 bolt may survive at 400, it's toast at 600, so tag on another $2500 for a rear end and driveshaft. You'll also eclipse 11.49 so add $1000 for a cage, big old exponential curve

Suspension, you might make your HP goals, now to put it to the ground, you will need stiffer suspension parts, shocks, driveshaft, rear end ect, now start saving up for all that, what ever stock trans you have will grenade at those HP numbers with a dead hook, so add that, another words dig deep into your pockets, cause its gonna cost you $$$$

I already have a Quick Performance 9 in and I got a cage that just needs to get installed I do need to change out my shocks and eventually do some tubular a arms and k member, I have a t56 so I know those can handle some power I haven't really looked into the transmission ratings just yet I know my clutch can handle it.

What ARP kit do yall normally get for the LT1 engines

[Camaro96]

If you get on Arp Web site they have a specific bolt kit, then you ad a main stud kit, center three splayed main caps( manufacturer of your choice) ARP head studs.
