You would be surprised how tame even a big cam like GM 847 (234/242 112 LSA 0.575"/0.595" w/1.6 rockers, if I remember correctly) behaves with a 6-speed car in a 383ci engine (when it is tuned right). Good luck. Tony

My car is going on the dyno Thursday for it's tune with the new setup. I'm geeked! I've been running a base tune that they put in last fall. Car feels very good/strong. Here's a few pics. (IMG:http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/Redbird1/engine/e1dc9395.jpg) (IMG:http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/Redbird1/engine/08a5ae20.jpg) (IMG:http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/Redbird1/engine/b9d73198.jpg) GMHTP had a 383 with ported stock heads put down (uncorrected) 448.5 at the crank. I have AFR190 street port. Not sure if this is better or worse than the ported stocks. Find out Thursday. My hope when I started this was 400 HP at the wheels. Wish me luck. Steve
