    Just got the manual box and clutch out of the doner car today so hopefully in the next week or so I'll get it over to alpine performance for the conversion! Also waiting for a gm rip shifter to turn up to go with it. What sort of difference did you find with the V7?

    Oil cap blew off supercharged 383 stroker now it doesn't seem right???

    Found a stock set of heads, so I'm thinking about getting them ported and all the good bits put in and put them on the car. Old head has to come off anyway so may as well get some to suit and get that compression down! I've got yella terra roller rockers already so they will go in too Sent...

    Oil cap blew off supercharged 383 stroker now it doesn't seem right???

    So far the mechanic thinks he's narrowed it down it either the lifters are rooted or the valves are bent. Or both..... He's got a far bit on this week so it's going back next week and he's gonna do all the tests to see if the valves are rooted. If that's the case I may as well look into lowering...
