I won't have the $$$$$ for mine until this summer, and I'll be installing it next winter, while I have time to detail the engine bay too :cheers:

wes76...
There are some other forum members besides Olivier who have(or had) AR 383's in the *running* condition in their vettes. Maybe they will pop in this thread.
I haven't heard anything from the recent buyers as to their progress with the 383's. I'm sure you will see lots of pics when one of'em fires up... or putters out. :lol:

I'm still waiting on the engine. Mark Lim (the owner I believe) is hand porting and polishing the heads and intake for me and he had to have some kind of surgery on his hand. Anyways, he is finally healling up and should finish very soon. Hopefully I will have it in a few weeks or sooner. Believe me, I'll let you guys know. I'm so excited about it. :steering:

Mark and I are developing the spec's for a Gen VI 540ci that he will be building and bench/dyno tuning for me... He aproximated 5weeks to complete. I'm hoping he can get started in the next 30days or so. I'll post on the progress, results, etc...

Re: AR Racing 383's (Alwyn678)
Yeah, I was thinking about one too. I am interested to hear about them.
The one I was looking at on the site said it was a rough idle due to the cam. I don't think I would mind. No power brakes. But for 3grand its still hard to commit to. :cheers:
