  • all i can say is damn, nice truck bro. fuckin sick!!

  • nice

  • Shouldn't have a problem slinging the belt unless you use the new one with the ribs they twist right off at 5000 rpm the old solid belts are better

  • k so i already have the stock 350 engine,so as long as its in good shape i can use it to make a 383 right? if i sound dumb its cus im 13 haha,anyways my nova has the 350 in it,so now i need to find the 400 ci parts in a catolog,which one is best for parts? cus i want good ones thatll stand up to 1/4 mile and keep goin

  • @landonu12 well if you try to make your 350 a 383 then you need to bore it .030 over and then buy a 3.750 crank. an all out racing engine will have all forged bottom end. you can by them from eagle or scat for resonable prices. the best thing to do is buy one of there kits because you don't have to do any of the measuring yourself. there is a link about cranks what kinds there are and how strong the materials are made of. type in crankshaft tech-popular hottroding

  • Do the internals of the motor determine whether the motor has to be carbed or fuel injected?

  • @panchito713 the cam maybe, but i dont think much anything else matters.

  • @panchito713

    not really. depends on the builders choice and the purpose of the motor. if its strictly for racing or certain types of fuel, then carb is more normal. fuel injection king in large HP large cubic inch motors - 1200+ HP range. fuel injection also handles cold weather much better. though with knock sensors, air/fuel sensors, IAT sensors, PCM, etc, - carb is more simple. if state inspection laws are more strict, mileage is more of a concern, then fuel injection is the way to go.

  • @panchito713

    Yes they do, With any cubic inch change the fuel curves and timing will need to be adjusted. MOST not all will need to stay on pumpgas so anywhere from 9.5 to 11.1. Depends how good your tuner is with your combo. this is all genrality though as some combos can go for more. Or your tuner can burn you a Racegas tune also. Depends on the vehicle.

  • hey where did you find those valve covers. did you paint them or buy them orangish /red

  • @Bam6961 You can get them from summit in orange, or black

  • @GarrettJDB oh thanks, yeah i saw them in summit, they just look red in the video.

  • what did this engine make for hp?

  • so just wondering people's opinions, what about throwing this into a bmw z3? not for drag.

  • comp cams has a saying "Hated by neighbors, Envied by friends"

  • that sounds fucking nasty i like it

  • sounds real good.

  • Nice!!

  • what cam specs? lift? sounds mean as hell man!

  • nice 383 but if i were you i wouldn't expect that fan belt to stay on there very long. i'd go with a serpentine setup. just a suggestion.

  • I wouldn't tell that to the NASCAR boys. Still running regular V-belts with 800+ HP and 9000 RPM. In my 25 years experience of building high RPM engines I have yet to throw a V belt.

  • You setup almost like mines instead i have a hydraulic roller cam but everything else the same i have it in a 1984 cutlass and i run some 10.30 in the quarter mile on motor and 8.50 with 200 shot of nos

  • Sounds healthy. whats with people and what we call around here idiot lights... If you don't know when you need to shift you shouldn't be racing.

  • @maplestory00, seeing is how a couple hundred difference RPM can change your time I don't see what your saying as very true. High horsepower asphalt car can launch to left or right with just a couple pound tire psi difference, stuff is critical

  • how much horsepower

  • Great car and sounds good, auh.. the good old days with all that engine room, today before opening hood, have a box of bandages near by, laughing...

  • sounds great!

  • badass motor

  • probably sittin around 550 horse

  • Is is running on pump gas (should be)

    and whats that 383 making for horse

  • carbon dioxide

  • its almost like my set up the heads Im running are Brodix track 1 and Victor jr intake with 750dp on 383 11.3cr with 67 chamber you deserve 5 stars upload more videos please

  • damn, is it still in the lemans?

  • how fast is the 1/4 im just curious

  • READ

    he said 11.5 @ 119

  • NICE

  • LOVE!!! <3

  • beautiful nice valve covers to btw, whats this in

  • sounds like straight pipes! that thing can bark!

  • nice, is that a double pumper? how does she like the double pumper? ive been thinking of running a double in my 383 but i dont want to over carburate

  • Look at a quick fuel, Its made from a bunch of retired holley guys who fixed anything that coud be better on the carbs. Really decent product. Around here, Me and all my buddies call edlebrock edelshit because we all have had nothing but problems. later this summet ill make a movie of the truck. 70 chev c10. 383. 3" pipes. super trap tips. Phantom grill. eaton locker. 350 turbo trans. 3 core raidiator. shaved handles. motor cycle mirrors.

  • street legal car????

  • spread your shit

  • What pistons are you running I wannabuild a 11:1 355.

    Im planning on running edlebrock RPM performer heads

  • if junkymustang woulda used better gears he prolly coulda squeezed out about a 11 instead of the 14

  • Beautiful man. What cam? Sounds niceeee.

  • how much power

  • nice set up got one too check out my page its on there  da olds

  • What kind of headers are on this?

  • i think edelbrock but i cant really tell

  • darcnitch is a dumbass "what kind of tranny bolts up to a 383 big block". its a small block you jackass unless youre talking about chrysler if so a chrysler transmission like a 727 torqe flite, if you thought it was a BBC then they have the same bellhousings has a small block unlike ford that had to use different ones.

  • badass small block!, by the way i was woundering if anyone could answer this question. why is it called a 383, everyone says its a .030 over 350 block with a 400 crank, if you do the math its only 379.626 cubic inches. it would have to be at least.060 over to be that at 382.452. could someone please explain this to me.

  • calculate your engine size by taking the square of the bore divided by 4, multiplied by pi, multiplied by the stroke, multiplied by the number of cylinders:

    ((Bore X Bore) / 4) X pi X Stroke X Cylinders

    For example, a Chrysler 426 (Hemi or Wedge) has a standard bore of 4.25" and a standard stoke of 3.75". Plugging that into the above formula gives us:

    ((4.25 X 4.25) / 4) X 3.141592654 X 3.75 X 8 = 425.59, or 426 cubic inches.

    Hope this helps...

  • I always calculated bore X stroke X number of cylinders X 3.14. That always worked when you calculated the bore and stroke of a 350 but I was just getting 379.26 when I tried to do it with the 383. My old automotive tech teacher showed us this way but I guess its missing something if you try to calculate anything over 350ci. Thank you for finally clearing this up for me, it was really starting to fuck with my head!

  • I believe that in order for a 400 crank to fit a 350 block.. the block has to be cleared.. That might be where your inches are coming up missing.. I dont know if I make any sense.. hahaha.. Just trying to help..

  • When you bore a 350 .030" over it's now a 355ci. The 400 small-block uses a 3.75-inch stroke compared with the 350's 3.48-inch stroke. The difference of the two cranks strokes allow roughly 27.6 ci more. Add that extra 27.6ci to the 355ci and you got a total of 382.6ci, which car crafters have conveniently rounded off to 383.

  • what lift cam are you running?

  • thanks guys for all your comments this engine really was something but now i am whit something even better a 415 cubic inches 635 hp will post video soon! thanks again for all the comments!

  • Tap Tap taP Cam is sweet and throttle is fuckin responsive!

  • what kinda trany bolts up to a 383 big block??? and the stroker? im thinking about puting one in my k5 blazer iv got the 700r tranny right now..

  • 383 is a small block, formed by putting a 3.75" stroke crank (turned down small block 400 crank or from aftermarket) in a block with a 4.030" bore (327 or 350 bored .030" over). Any GM trans with the SBC/BBC bellhousing pattern will bolt up to it. TH700R4 will bolt up no problems. Make sure you get all the linkages installed and adjusted properly, or it will not shift properly or at all.

  • I would recommend using a TH350 or TH400 Transmission. Ditch the 700R4.

  • thanx man

  • i have a video of my 383 up tell me what you think

  • yeah i remember when it was cheap too its not so cheap anymore

  • true if i were you make sure your heads and pistons can handle it first you dont wanna burn holes in the top of your piston heads hell just go to a small little airport and get some airplane fuel i believe its 110 and run that thats what i did and still with my 383 i run 93 and about 5 galls. of 110 runs top notch ill post a video of it tomorrow so you can tell me what u think

  • 87?? shit go with 93 if the compression is lower than 12 i wouldnt run a high performance engine on 87

  • lol I wouldnt trust him to build anything seeing how he smokes crack and all. ironic that im also getting a stroker buildt to be put in a 78 monte carlo though

  • a big block?

    you won't see a small block anywhere near that...

  • is that a 6" connecting rod or are u using the short rod version?

  • to build a true 383 stroker u have to run 400 heads for more compression and for toque thats y 393 have so much god damn torque

  • dude you're a fucking idiot.

    small block heads are small block heads... with the exception of the steam holes.

  • steam holes how much crack do u smoke?

  • Stock 400 heads have steam holes drilled into them... and some applications the need to be drilled to any head you're putting on a 400 block..... it's to do with cooling issues....

    look it up.

  • sorry no you dont.

  • usually when ppl build a 383 stroker they use a 350 block and 400 heads and a 400 crank but its wat ever u want it to do like putting a beefier cam all depends on wat u do to it

  • 350 bore 400stroke?

  • well tech. its like a 350 stroked out to a 383 b/c of the 400 heads b/c u do have to bore out the cylinders i think im pretty sure but boreing out the cylinders wud make it a 383 so yea its a 350 bored out.. not to a full 400 but u have to have a 400 crank and 400 heads

  • where did you come up with 400 heads? You don't need to run 400 heads.... you can run any god damn head you want.

    you take a 350 block.. bore it .030 over... and a 400 crank.. which is 3.75" and you get a 383..

  • this may seem like a dumb question but is ur 383 a 400 block with a 350 crank or a 350 block with a 400 crank

  • That's a reasonable question but i think it's a 400 block with a 350 crank, has a choppier sound.

  • I thought it would be around 388 cubic inchs? all I know is a 383 is generally a 350 with a 3.75" crank.

  • really? so can you basically just take any 350 and change the crank? and get all that much more power????

  • with some machine work yea I guess so.

  • i thought a destroked 400 came out to be somewhere around 377, while the stroked 350 was 383

  • looks like a hell of a engine where did you get the valve covers at? would love to get some for my 383 stroker that im gonna build.

  • lol normal piston engines can only go to 4-5 thousand RPM redlined and rotary engines can go to 8000 redline wtf

  • Then why do I turn 6500 RPM on my 350 and Nascar/World of outlaws turn 8800 RPM.

  • what kind of gas do you use?

  • just dropped one in my 70 monte

  • That thing spins up pretty quickly, what's the specs on your camshaft?

  • I can answer that. Theyre Chev Bowtie rocker covers. Pricey but nice.

  • nice engine! where did you get those valve covers?? they look cool.

  • you can find them on ebay or in mucle car magazines

  • yea u can find em in jegs and ebay probly

  • oh ya,nice engine man , im going to do nearly to this engine but wiyh dart pro 1 top end ,all forged interal ,comp cam and demon 825 cfm .and iwill but this in c4 89 model.

  • my engine builder doesn't like demon carbs, says theres a reason more racers use holley carbs...theyr'e better

  • an 850 is about right if has a big anough cam for it. and since he is running a supevictor, then its definately a big cam. those intakes work from 45-8500 rpms. also, he must be running some really low gears to work well with that set up. but it sounds bad ass! good job to whoever built it!

  • badass motor man, i like those valve covers, 572 bbc style

  • Impresionante!! muy bueno.

  • edelbrock carbs suck,holley needs too much tuning but is ok for some things, demon carbs are the best plus they actually look good

  • ya they allso cost three times more then them both

  • muscle cars arent for poor people,they take alott of maintenance and a demon carb is worth a little extra money, and they dont cost three times as much their only about $80 more than a holley

  • holley ya cost a little bit less but edelbrock way less is was gonna buy twin demons off ebay and they cost 1200 lost the bid

  • for a supercharger? yeah those setups do cost bank,if you race and youre all go and no show i guess holleys are good choices

  • dude there go they are difrent due to there tuning,and ya the machined aluminum is better air flow

  • but ya i supercharged mine so i needed the dual carb

  • demon carbs suck...

  • what your gay penis? demon is the shit you better ask somebody

  • LMAO!

  • explain why! ... if your going to make a comment like that.

  • i guess you like holley carbs just because it is a popluar brand...

  • sounds like our factory stock motor. we have a 72 chevelle with an all forged 383 (rules say no bigger than 360. pfff) revvs a lil quicker than yours, due to a direct drive power glide. it weighs about 3550 after the feature.

  • hey man what size carb is that? im rebuilding a chevy 350 and its done up pretty good should have about 350 - 370 horse nothing to crazy. anyway its not quite done yet but i have an edelbrock 600 carb and a performer intake (thats not everything) and im hoping it will be that responsive.

  • this is a 750 holley I THINK . yeah you should go for a 600-650cfm edelbrock. good luck

  • read the description. 850 cfm double-pumper holley. and no, a 600 would starve the shit out of the HP 383 on the topend. hes dead on the money with the 850, thats what im using, only a grant demon.

    imho eddelbrock carbs just al round suck.. again. just my opinion.

    nice vid, same heads on mine =]

  • i know you posted this a long fucking time ago and you might have already done it, but i built a 355 with a 490 lift comp cam, vortec heads, air gap intake, 10:1:1 compresion, MSD and had a edelbrock 600cfm. it was way to small, it would stall out at about 5000. i went with a 750 holley and would go till it came apart if you wished. it was in a 84 swb pickup w/ 3.08 gears and a th350 and ran low 14s at close to 100mph in a square heavy ass old pickup.

  • hey i got one of those, sound like that too

  • wow i love that engine!! sounds nice :)

  • i would put money on it you bought a crate, i prefer to build my own, i like the challenge of parts sellection, but, if you can't figure out, a crate in all honesty....not a bad way to go.

  • hey budyi did not buy a crate by the way everyhing was bought in pieces and i built my own enine i own a engine rebuild shop so i know a thing or two on engines!!!

  • good deal then, i've built a number of motors myself, not fortunate enough to have machine shop...have to farm that portion out. but thats cool, so often people just buy the crate and get it over with, although a good choice, like i said, i like the challenge and bragging rights of "i built it." have a good one man!

  • nice car ...what years that camaro about 88 or something?

  • It probbibly has like between 350 and 450 horses eh? Sweet deal.

  • that was awesome

  • sounds sweet

  • nice ride

  • Hillbillys rule

  • how much power it got

  • well i have about the same setup and were getting about 460 hp
