Hey Denny,

Don't rule out a 383 sbc.
There's plenty of 500HP  383 combos out there (super Chevy, Car Craft, etc).
I've got a pretty  health 383 in a tow vehicle - I've also got a 454 powered
car etc...
I'd go with the Big Block if eye lid peelin grunt is what your looking for,
however, If money is a concern go with the 383 stoker and a little extra
gear....with the 454, a turbo 400 and 12 bolt may be in order.

NPV

PS Most of the Mustangs \ Hondas \ Neons \ Toyotas in my area have
discovered the distinct howl of a modified 454 breathing thru a short, 2
chambered, 3 inch flowmaster system - did I mention it pisses off my
neighbors.....

Hi all;

My 71 is about ready to come home from the paint and upholstry shop - was
planning on/had my heart set a big block next but my mechanic has offered me
a sweet deal on a 383/400HP stroker.  The car will not be raced, but would
like to be able to blow off a pestering mustang if necessary.  Reliability
is important, will not be a daily driver.  Currently 307/TH350, 10 bolt
posi.  Will be installing flowmaster exhaust.. Comments on BBC VS SBC?  If
you were builing now or starting over?.. Have picked up a lot of good info
on the list... Thanks.. Denny/GA
