    What kind of duration are you running with that cam? That and your rearend gear will play a big factor into what converter you run. When your ready for a converter make sure you contact site sponsor Riddings Automatics. Mike does great work. He set me up great!

        Well I was thinking about selling the car but I got a itch for some extra speed and bought a short block 383 from my dads friend. I put the edelbrock performer rpm cam in it got some larger heads and had them ported by superior in kimball and put a pete jackson gear drive in it. toped off with a performer rpm intake and 750 carb I just finished it today I am hopeing to fire it up tomarrow evening just have to put the plugs and wires on it. I will be running it for the first time with headers only because I lost one of the collectors it should be here sunday.

        Next in line is a torque converter I wil post pics and a sound clip saturday
