Re: Performance Lacking in a 383 Build.
Hey Pat,
Sorry to hear about your engine. If you build another 383 build check the length of the cylinder bores, some blocks have shorter bores and are not good for the longer stroke of a 383. ( 880 block being one ) The piston skirts stick out to much at the bottom of the stroke and cause piston rattle and the skirts brake. It sounds like this is possibly what happened to your engine.
