Subject: Re: 1985 vette--Wanting to turn it into a 383stroker by Aboatguy on 2013/1/21 16:55:44 I concur with Mathew, Will and Brian A truth about performance is Reliable, Cheap, Fast, choose two. In my experience on a performance modification project, research and come up with your projected budget, then double it and you may end up close. Modififying older vehicles always brings up a couple of unexpected Oh-shits and Oh buy the ways. If you search the internet the double the estimate often happens to folks that use professional shops...They'll take their car, bike, boat to a shop; get an estimate and next thing they know is the price is skyrocketing. For a mild 355 build with decent parts figure 5-6K and don't be surprised to have to spend another 2k or so on your driveline. Good luck. Mike |
