GRUMPY! I built a 383 for my 4200 lb impala and while its a big improvement over the 350 it replaced its not nearly as fast as I hoped it would be, I will probably have to go the hard way and install one of those big block 632 ci BIG BLOCK whoppers.TO GET THIS SLUG TO MOVE BRISKLY


AS YOU MIGHT KNOW BY READING THRU THIS SITE IM A BIG FAN OF CHEVY BIG BLOCK ENGINES AND WOULD BE FAR FROM RELUCTANT TO GO THE BIG BLOCK ROUTE, but if you just built a 383 , why not used most of the parts you have, already, why not go with 8:1 forged pistons a good inter-cooler and TURBO,... at 15 lbs of boost a well thought out and built 383 should potentially have similar torque to a big block and it might be an option your overlooking
