1968 383 low block build up.

so i have a 1868 chrysler newport with a 383 in it. i have converted it from being a stock 2 barrel single exhaust to being a 4 barrel using a holley 4150 carb and an edelbrock performer series intake. I am in the process fo soing dual 2.5 inch exhaust from the headers back.

any otehr suggestions as to things i can do to improve performance without doing a full rebuild....

thanks,

Gary

MSD coil and an orange box will really wake up the ignition and it is under $100 from summit racing. (just did it to my 78 318).

while your doing the exhaust you should consider using a x pipe design over a h pipe . gains of about 17 - 30 rwhp thats a good amount for not alot more $.
windage tray , a good air filter . nitrous haha

Can you please check the dates of the posts you are reading before you reply as they are very old, aka "dead threads"
