doin' it right the second time (Americanmusc1e's 383)
about 3 weeks ago my new motor lost oil pressure and started making noise. turns out one of the lobes on the cam went flat. causing my bearings to go out. I had been thinking about what I would do differently if I had to build the motor again. now I have a chance.
the current motor is a 350 bored .060 over, dished hyperecutec pistons, stock rods, stock cast crankshaft ground .020/.020 under, flat Comp cams HE260 hydraulic flat tappet cam, guideplates, hardened pushrods, roller tipped stamped rockers, Comp cams double roller timing chain, melling M55 standard volume oil pump, stock oil pan, weiand stealth intake, holley 600 VS, flowtech headers, and vortec heads (home ported). my planned upgrades are: 383 stroker crank, good rods, and more compression, bigger cam other possible upgrades are: roller cam, better oil pan, and forged pistons. anything I missed???? suggestions???
