Thinking about selling my motor. I want to build an LS motor but no need to if I have this one. If interested lets talk. Looking to get about $5000 for it. If you were to build this it would be over $8600 in parts and machine work alone. 383 sbc about 560hp on pump gas 11.0:1 compression.

i was always curious and im sure others always have been whats the cam specs for that motor?

Its a small street roller. 255/262 duration@.50 574 lift, I use 1.6 rocker for a gross lift of 613. It does not have a very aggressive lobe like a true race roller cam so it doesnt kill springs.

Isn't the 030 block the high nickle block?

Has this motor been proven at all, like, have you gone a couple rounds or won any races at the track with it or anything?

Little info. Mine is a 3970010 with the 010/020 Got the below info off the net.

A block's alloy content is denoted by two figures cast into the front face, just above the main bearing bore, in the area normally concealed by the timing cover. Many production small blocks have the numbers "010," "020" or both cast into their front face, just above the main bearing bore. If both numbers are present, one above the other, it indicates that the block alloy contains 10% tin and 20% nickel. A single number, either a "010" or "020" represents the amount of nickel and indicates negligible amounts of tin.
No numbers, other than the casting numbers that are typically found beneath the timing cover, translates to only minor amounts of tin and nickel being present in the block alloy. (Tin and nickel are two metals that are commonly alloyed with cast iron to improve durability, hardness and heat dissipation.)
Although a "010"/"020" block is most desirable, it's not always possible to find one that's suitable for high performance use. Alloy composition aside, cylinder wall thickness is the overriding consideration in block selection, and one with no tin or nickel and thick cylinder walls is generally preferable to a high-nickel block with thin walls.

maybe a few.
