I do like the idea of big Cubic Inches. But I agree with Flash. My buddy built Mike Wrights (Black 69 PT Camaro) 383 and it makes 541 Hp and 519 tq

It's JMOHO but you have a 70's OEM LT1(From carb to pan) Why gut it just so you can use the block. It's got to be worth some $$ as a whole? If you're going with a OEM block , you can find those pretty cheap. Then get your rotating assembly, cam, heads etc and you're ready to go. I myself prefer an after market block for anything over 500Hp

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.
