Guys this is what I get up in the morning for and I always say I wouldn't want to do anything else . This a project for a friends single engine 26 cat this engine on the dyno made 9 PSI of boost on pump gas and never set the det sensor off not even once. We changed the shape of the quench area in the combustion chamber when we ported them and this thing is a dream even how it idles at 900 RPM with 28 degrees of total timing . Tommy the owner had us install billet caps on a bowtie gm block he had us sonic test.Here are some pics for the gear heads.

Kinda looks like a car motor with the short snout and just one v belt for the water pump.
I would guess it is a bravo boat ? what about the alternator,power steering and water pump?
Laz give us motor heads some more info.Like what heads ,cam type, carb size,,Did ya try anymore timing,How low did ya pull it down to.
Laz your teasing us

The damn blower is as big as the block!!!
Looks like a 6-71? Why so big on a 383?
I'll say one this, it sure is impressive looking.

Laz,
Those are outstanding numbers! With that 1900 RPM spread from peak TQ/HP whatever boat that motor goes in is going to pull like a rocket. Look foreward to seeing you in Miami.

I did try more timing and the power fell off big time remember its on pump gas thats no crap. I'm trying to figure how to put the video in so you guys can see it and listen to it . It really sounds bad ass specially around 6500RPM
