T.J you have that thing all bolted together and ready to take some more pics for us. A young man of your age has limitless energy to get things done. I remember staying up til 3 or 4 in the morning putting my first stroker 383 together.

Ta2Don · 12-29-2014, 12:08 PM

Yeah, what he said...

McMurphy · 12-29-2014, 12:37 PM

Man I just caught up on your build, and congrats !!

When I saw the first photo of your motor on the stand I remembered how jazzed I was when I got my OHC-6 230 detailed and back together; and when I got the engine for the stepside done !!

Those side plates are awesome, nice touch.

Cannot wait to see the finished product dude

Thanks Murphy! I'm excited as well! More parts on their way.

**pdxhall** · 12-29-2014, 11:03 PM

Get that thing fired up!

bj383ss · 12-31-2014, 12:15 PM

T.J. here are some motivational pics for you. Not meaning to hijack your thread just thought you might like these. It is the first 383 stroker I built for my 79' Caprice. It later threw the #1 rod. Too much hot rodding. I built this in 99'

My dad was not happy when he found out how much money I spent!

Nice progress TJ! I am finally getting back on my '64 short step 292 project. Feeling a little more energized after working on her a bit today. Hitting up a swap meet tomorrow. Started peeling off my rockers today and will have additional work to do on the sub panels as well. Glad I can weld :-)

rusty76 · 01-04-2015, 07:05 PM

What kind of rocker arms are you using? Are they stock? Only reason I ask is that on our race motor, 230 and 250 both have roller rockers on them with just a little bit of clearance on both the first and last rocker arm. I was just wondering. Thanks.

65sub · 01-04-2015, 07:31 PM

nice motor. I do like to see an inline 6 being built.
