you all have voted for it; the forced induction is going to be a supercharger!! i have a blower calibrated mighty demon 750 cfm carb and a weiand 177 roots blower from summit, to go along with it ill be pulling the engine and throwing in blower pistons. also a partial tear down, restoration and overhaul is in progress on pg 6. ill be documenting as i go so there may not be that many words mostly pics......enjoy!


heres the engine layout: the block itself is a 4 bolt main 350, bored .030/ eagle forged 400 crank/ 400 fly wheel/ forged pistons & con rods/ double roller timing set/ cat pep 1.5 full roller aluminum rockers/ no air conditioning(any more) / edelbrock performer rpm aluminum 64cc heads/ edelbrock performer rpm #7102 hydraulic lifter cam 234 &244(112 lobe sep., you can imagine what that sounds like...)/ powermaster gear reduction mini starter/ 14x3" k&n air filter/ and a few dress up items. the 383 i bought as a turn key crate thru www.enginefactory.com.. scanned pics of the first 305 TBI and 383 crate swap are posted on pg 7, ive got a scanned old photo of the original 305 TBI on pg 7 too.

this is what the crate 383 looked like berfore the the supercharger upgrade. originally it came with chrome valve covers & t-stat housing i later changed to get rid of extra heat that it traps in. all though its great for show, chrome seems to be the worst thing for heat disipation:

other mods: spohn performance torque arm with cross member & front driveshaft loop/ aluminum driveshaft/ dual core northern aluminum radiator/ lakewood rear traction arms/ lakewood adjustable panhard rod/ hotchkis subframe connectors/ msd 6AL/ msd 8.5mm plug wires/ edelbrock headers with tubular exhaust kit to a 3in flowmaster force II catback kit/ 30 series flowmaster muffler has one 3in inlet and one 3in outlet/ optima red top battery/ mallory high output billet hei distributor/ march under drive pulleys/ the rear seats and belts are removed for soon to come 8 pnt roll cage/ & theres more on the next couple of pages/ the diff(pg5) is fully rebuilt and has an auburn posi, yukon gear 3:73, superior forged alloy axles, spohn performance 1" rear drag sway bar, and TA aluminum diff cover and girdle support along with new timkin bearings and new seals.

BEFORE:

AFTER(but still in work):
these are the dyno charts @ the flywheel for the eng before the s/c. I know they are a bit hard to see but its as clear as i could get them with what i had:
