Clarence Carter
That right I'm Strokin,
Just finished contacting all the vendors and getting recomendations for my set up and here is what I am going with. I am waiting another couple of days to see if I can get a hold of a 4 bolt block but if not I will start tuesday. The AFR heads have a 12 week leave time so it will be a while before this beast is ready but I am looking for big #s when it's all said and done :D
LT1 Block bored, clearanced, and Splayed main caps.
SCAT Forged 4340 Crank w/3.750 stroke
SCAT Pro-Line 4340 H-Beam rods 6.0 rods
SRP inverted dome pistons P/N 138103
Plasma Moly file to fit rings
CC 306 small base circle cam
AFR LT4 195 heads W/upgraded springs
LT4 ported intake

Even then, I opt not to use them; they introduce just too much inconsistency in times over the course of a season.
I recommend .005 overs too, and file fit them to each bore. Good move!
I'm not familiar with your cam choice, but any cam with an advertised duration at 300 or more makes the hairs on my arm stand straight up.
Be sure to get the correct lifters for the cam if you're going small base circle.

Re: Clarence Carter (FD2BLK)
That cam should sound pretty good. I was told to stay less then 230 duration, even for a 383. I was considering a Hotcam or 305. Now that I've got it together, I'm glad I didn't go any smaller. Neither the Hotcam or 305 would have made me happy. The cam I selected (see my sig) is just under the 306. I think it was #503. I could have gone bigger with the 383. I think my cam would sound good in a 350.
Oh, and I think you are the guy that sent me a clutch a while back. Thanks. It helped get me by while I resolved my flywheel balancing and clutch issues.
