Beachbum, I don't recall the guy's name, but his car had later "disco Vette" body panels on it. He used to run at the WCCC events. I want to say it was a darker color. He used to trailer his car in.

There's definitely performance to be had with either combo. I think the low RPM shift points are hurting the ET and MPH. I need to get my LM-1 on it and see how my fuel curve looks in high gear.

Ron, I probably should drop the trans out when I pull the 383 over Christmas break. I'd like to have some work done to the governor to raise the shift points. That would make a big difference I think. I don't think anything can be done to the shifter.

Once I get the 327 squared-away, I'm tempted to put the stock cast iron intake and rams horns back on, and see if I can still sqeek a 12.XX out of it. Of course the intake and ex manifolds would need to have the bee-Jesus ported out of them...
