I Chose the 383 Big Block

I assumed the BB head would be better than an iron SB head, but just a guess. At least the BB head can take a bigger valve, right?

Yes to a bigger valve. It’s just the OEM head ports do not flow as well as one would think. The aftermarket solved that. Porting your own iron heads can be a great cost savings and produce excellent flow. The 906/452, etc… very good heads to port. 300 & plus cfm available if it’s done right. Of course there still heavy and it takes time. Money if you can’t port and have to pay the man…. The. I’d consider aluminum. Even more so since I don’t know how to correctly port a head. I gotta a guy…..
You're not wrong. I'm actually coming up on 4 months since I had a burst fracture of my L4, thankfully no surgery required.

Holy crap! I was just joking but daaaaaaaaaaaang!
Hope all heals well.

Either way, it was more a joke. And I am kicking the distributor to the curb on my next swap. :D

I figured it was a joke and so was my response.

Crank trigger?
