Re: 383 Build

Marv and I agree on most things right Marv

I run an Edelbrock 1406 on my 462" Lincoln and it runs simply awesome out of the box. And I don't plan on changing it.

But I also run a 12.9 compression motor on 91 octane when cruising around and e85 when putting my foot in it. Given it is not a traditional small block.

I do believe tighter quench is good to a point(.040" is about all I'd run), sometimes though reducing the efficiency will aid when you are creating a very efficient combo IE a power adder like N20. I run my N20 stuf a little looser than that.
