Grumpy I would like to pick your brain on a 383 motor build for a 81 vette 355 gear auto with a future upgrade to a 200ry or 700ry . I have a good block GM bored out 040 over with comp roller retro fit lifters that I gotwith the motor the thumpor cam I got with it will be used for a door stop I like the Ohio crankshaft rotating kit 383 street rodder kit 5140 forged crank forged 6" I beam rods srp forged flat top pistons it's intervally balanced I like the msd ignition 8551 pro billit dist 8223 Blaster III coil 6 AL box with rev limiter and msd wires it will have at least 1 3/4 ceramic headers and I like the AFR 195 cc street heads w 655cc chambers I still need to find a cam my present thumper is # 12 602-8 and I think it's a bad cam for my motor this will be a street hp runner not a racer I would like to know if you have time to check this out and give me your opinion on what to keep and what to change I also need an intake carb and oil pan I'm on a budjet but that that was blown out of the water years ago This agean a street motor with some highway miles to carlisle and someof the other meets 3-6 hours away I'm also thinking of upgrating to an aluninum radiator , engine , and trans oil cooler and whats your opinion on electric trans . Any advice you're willing to share or opinions or suggestions will be appriciated
thanks in advance
