Default 383 Build Thread with *Pics*

I just thought I would start a thread for the progression of my build it's a
1995 Z/28 Just your basic run a the mill camaro. So I dropped the drivetrain and had at it, I started by stroking the 4 bolt block to 385 with all the Callies fordged internals, and SRP Pro pistons, then I called up AI for a topend. We decided on going with their 215cc TFS heads with shafties and a solid roller cam and ported factory intake, trying to keep the comp around the high 11ish range so I could still put some pump gas in it, Oh yeah it's gonna have a plate shot of dope, Gonna start small and work my way up to a 200 shot max. The engine's going to be turning a TH350 with a Brake around a 4kto 4.5k stall
back to a Moser 12bolt final gearing will be selected after some test and tune. And it will have all the suspension goodies also k-member upper and lowers etc etc, I want to get the car into the 10's so it's on a Major Diet trying to get all the wieght out of it I can "Free Horsepower". I will keep posting pistures as I go along with the build. Here's a few pics of some of the parts that arrived so far for your viewing pleasure I'll post some up of the heads and shortblock later they are at the shop and I didn't have the camera with me so here goes, As I like to call it, Proformance Porn
