Yet another LT1 rebuild ;-)
Last year I pulled engine and trans of my 93 model C4. The originally plan was to bore and hone my own block. But I ended up with a 383 short block from Golen Engines and TrickFlow 430 HP LT1 top and cam kit. Transmission (TH700R4) was delivered to a local workshop for overhaul and strengthen. Engine is done (some minor work yet to be done before engine is going back to car).
Last year I got new 32 lbs injectors from FIC, Melrose longtube headers and 3" BB Triflow exhaust.
Hopefully the package will produce close to 500 HP on engine ;-)
The build is blogged about here: http://thomas-chevy-c4.blogspot.com/

Thx very much;-) I will get the trans next week from the workshop. There is still winter and cold up here north and it is too cold in garage for putting engine+trans back in car.. The plan is to be ready late March for first start of engine...

If everything is working as expected I should see close to 500 HP on engine ...
