I am currently in Afghanistan. I get home from my deployment around September, and want to inject some more power out of my 68 Corvette. I am looking for 420-450hp out of a 383ci engine. I would like a hydro roller cam instead of a flat tappet. I am shooting for a CR of 10-10.5 using aluminum heads. The car will spend most of its time on the street, so I don't want an extremely aggressive cam that will screw me over on manifold vacuum. It will probably make 15-20 passes on the strip a year. I was looking at all the big sites like Summit and Jegs, but didnt find anything in my price range that had good reviews from current owners, so I figured the best way to go was with a local shop. I have emailed several shops since I cant easily call from here. It has been 4 days, and I have only received one reply, but he is dead set on building a 400ci small block with nitro, not exactly what im looking for. Does anyone know of a good shop that could build a long block?
