Getting ready to put motor together need help with cam.
383 9.5-1, world s/r heads, performer intake.Would like to stick with flat hyd cam. Not looking for max performance,just nice low idle.I'am sure it will out perform the 305 it will replace. Also, I haven't orderd the heads or intake, so I'am open to all idea's.
thank you
Paul

I am assembling a 383 (actually a 389, 060 over) as well. I called Tyler Crockett of Crockett Marine and he sent me a intake/cam package. The cam he sent me is a little bigger than what you will probably want, as I went for performance over idle. It is a 228 @0.50 single pattern, Crane part #100072. I am running ported and polished 882 2.05/1.60 heads. The intake was a dual plane high-rise Brodix.
I would give him a call or email and tell him what your boat is, weighs, motor details, and what you want out of it.

If you would like I can put a package together for you . Just e-mail me @ [email protected] . Please write me all the particulars of the boat: weight ,length, drive ratio,prop now running, and all the engine specs to date. I will be glad to assist you in purchasing the correct components the first time! Thanks again!

c staub you onluy have to take a bit off the bolts, its better to do that than run a small base circle cam. you need to clearnce everything in the rotating assm during you mock up, =check your piston to valve while your at it.
