New 383 Build

[Texas77Stepper]

This is my first post here.. looking for some good feedback hopefully.

Let me know what you guys think about this BUDGET engine build to go in front of a 700r4 with a 2500 stall converter. We are just about to put this guy together and drop it in a 77 step side.

• Air Gap Vortec Intake Dual plane
• Vortec Heads - 64 cc chambers/170 cc intake runner- 1.94/1.50 valves - .525 lift perf springs 110 # on the seat and 295 # open - Viton positive seals - 3 angle valve job
• Clevitte rods and main bearings
• 3.75 stroke crank 350 mains
• block bored .030 over with torque plates for proper cylinder/ring seal
• 383 stroker hypereutectic flat top pistons- right at 10.3 to 1 compression
• Hi Volume oil pump
• hardened steel shaft with pinned steel oil pump sleeve
• Cloyes double roller timing chain
• .488 / .488 lift cam with 234 degrees duration measured at .050(actual lift is .520 with 1.6 ratio roller rockers)
• Pro full roller rocker arms self aligning for vortec heads
• chrome molly pushrods - 4130 steel
• crank rods and pistons spin balanced to plus or minus 1 gram
• Pro Comp hydraulic flat tappet lifters
• AC cam bearings
• Pro Comp performance 65K volt distributor

If you think I should make any changes or missed something now is the time before we install. Remember this is a BUDGET build, cost is a factor. Thanks for any help.
