Sorry Al, haven't been around much lately.
There has been movement though.....

383 Stroker LS is being built ... rotating assembly & cam are in, AFR heads are ready to be fitted, still some check measures and cam dial-in to be done. Full long motor in a couple of weeks.

The body is in primer and straight as hell !!!
Just getting another block back before colour but final colour mix is still to be decided.

its loolkin good mate,....Id love a LS in my Effy....

Im hearing you ive got a heap pf parts here that wont fit for my F100 project,...
Youd think when they say 2" steering column that the friggin brackets would actually be 2".....

The Effie's looking very cool.
Keep chipping away at it mate, every little job is a step closer.

Fresh engine looks mint Pete.

Thanks Lyndsay
It'll be heading to the dyno soon enough, first up will be to bed it all in, do some baseline power pulls with a carby manifold, then later with tunnel ram & injection.

You may have mentioned it before, but what injection and tunnel ram are you using?

Going to be one sweet Ranga!

Holley Hi-Ram Lyndsay with injection ports on the manifold, 'EFI Hardware' throttle bodies on top. Haven't worked out plenum volume of butterfly sizes yet. Probably in the 40-45mm range.

whats the deal on the stroker?
High comp deal or you going turbos? I cant remember what you had planned?
Im planning on building a high comp LS for my drift car so always interested on good LS builds.

Hi Adam
High comp, naturally aspirated LS1-383, around 11.7?, shaved deck & heads, pistons hang out of the bore a smidge. Cam is .635, 254@50 on a tight LSA. Holley HiRam & injection. Should push high 500hp with good mid-range torque.
It'll hit the dyno with a carby setup then swap in the injection later.

[aussie69camaro]

hell yea!
sounds like a nice little package. Ive got a spare LS in the shed and wasnt sure what to do with it, but that sounds cool.
Will be nice chunky idle

Well painting starts in a week, colour took a massive left turn but you'll have to wait for the 'unveiling' for that.
Heads should go on this weekend so engine will be all sealed up finally. Thats about all.....

Iam looking forward to the reveal of the new colour
