Likely 383 swap-parts advice requested

You called it correctly fish-4" bore x 3" stroke in a Ford 302...that car is getting worked on as well...will be getting a new 4.6 DOHC engine with a single turbo. I just haven't decided whether to go 72 or 76mm impeller :D

sr: I kinda figured equal builds would be a clear cut difference between the two, I just gotta figure out exactly how much manners I want it to have. I guess the best way to figure out my goals, in this case, is to define what all I don't want to heavily upgrade. I'll install some subframe connectors to stiffen things up of course, but I doubt there would be much in the way of significant suspension upgrades apart from installing sway bars front and rear, new leafs, appropriately sized torsion bars, and new bushings. The furthest I would really wanna go would be caltracs.

One of the guys I work with just recommended go with a more urban setup...pump gas friendly (89 octane) I think is what he was aiming at.
