Nice car man, that's my favorite GEN RX7.
Build details? It's always neat to see what people have and where they end up...

Nice numbers, have my 383 bested especially in the HP department. Just had it dyno-ed less than a month ago at LMT as well . Also interested in your build specs.

Here's a pic of the motor right after I dropped it in about a month and a half ago.
I had to rebuild it after over revving and breaking a rocker stud which took out an intake manifold gasket which hydrolocked cylinder #3. This happened at GLD on a run after doing a previous 12.9 with a 1.9 60 on street tires. (It was a 355 then)
The block is a 1979 thick walled high nickel 350. Bored and stroked to 383.
It was align honed and deck plated. All the machine work was done by Kilpatrick Engines.
Callies 400 crank
Howards pistons and rods (balanced with the crank)
All Comp Cams valve train.

There's a little more but this is the jist of it.
The car has been an ongoing neverending project for about 3 and a half years now.
This motor is the third build since I bought the car as a basket case back in 2008.
There's a lot of GoKart like suspension mods as well.

Thanks for the nice comments.
It was nice meeting with fellow forum members. I belong to another forum (norotors.com) and we only get together once a year.
I'm looking forward to doing more events and meets with everyone here.

Nice build and car! How much does the car weigh?
Good taste in valve covers too :
I also run Vortecs with my 383 and the other car/350 as well. The 383 car's time is in my sig below but a 2.1 or 2.2 60'. My goal is to crack 12's with it, maybe a little carb tuning and DR's hopefully does the trick.

02' Regal GS - Who cares
Car weighs about 2900 with 1/2 tank of gas. (truck scale)
I'm hoping to crack 11's with it now. It all depends on keeping the tires planted and shifting out of the hole. My T5 is a low ratio with my 4:10 rear end.
Even with the pathetic 1st gear I found my 60' times were better than starting in 2nd.
This motor has a lot more torque so I might have trouble lighting up the tires on launch. I know I'll do better with slicks or DR's but then they just bring out the next weak link.
I'll probably hammer on it after a norotor club get together next month down in Indy. I have access to some DR's so we'll see...
