Very nice ride :clap :clap :clap

How does that small block cross ram set up run?

383 ci in. The sound is great 2x450cfm mech. Holleys, performance a little better than single 4, Idle is tough to get right. Am switching to billet metering plates to get a little more adjustability. I won't waste too much time on it as it runs and looks real good. Going to pull and sell about mid to late summer in favor of the 348. THANKS

I really like the look of that 1962 BA two door sedan!

A little understated compared to the Impala, but all business underneath the hood! A "W" engine will suit that car just fine :). Good luck with the project and keep us informed about your engine build. If you stroke the 348 we'd be interested in hearing of your choices in components.

I am planning on the same sort of 348 stroker build two egines down the road, for a 1961 BA sport coupe that came from the factory with a 348. Don't have the original engine, but do have a replacement block that cleaned up nicely at .030". Plans are to use a 409 crank and oil pan, either 333 truck heads or 817s off of a 340 horse setup, along with 3x2 intake. I would be shooting for HP ratings in the 350-400 range, depending on heads and exhaust selections. Gotta be a four speed :)...

Good luck and keep us posted!
