Pete, I pretty much agree on that LS7 thing..... pushrod technology works of art is what those motors are. But, without even trying hard, one of those motors would take you well beyond your 11.50 limitation..... you'd be running 10's in your sleep with one of them.

Considering what your goal is, I think you're their already with your 383 Superram motor.... freshen up the motor, put the good cylinder heads on with the slightly looser converter, and you'll easily run mid 11's, and maybe even accidently low 11's. Considering you already own it all.... its the cheap route to your goal as well.

I ran a best of 11.32 @ 119 mph with a 1.52 60 ft with an identical set-up at a raceweight of 3300 lbs on a 700 ft midwest track in 70 degree air. I have no doubt with a fresh motor and upgraded converter, you would too. In 80-90 degree summer air, I ran 11.4's and 11.5's all day long.

good luck with whatever you choose !
