Hey

We have a chevy 307, a 283 block with 327 crank for the 2012 challenge Anyone have any hop up parts that they will let go cheaply?

Near East Central Illinois preferred

Thanks

seriously? you're going there? on a challenger build no less? wtf is your problem, go play with your fiat and leave v8's to the big boys.

what do you guys need? i can dig my small block parts bin. do you need any basic stuff like bearings or anything or is the long block together and just looking for cam/intake/header type stuff? i think i gave away my forged 307 pistons but i can check for those too.

haha, no, my chevelle had a 307, and I've been down this road before. also, it's called sarcasm.

Not sure it will help you, but I have a set of 350 smog heads, and I may have a timing chain set or two. I also have a 350 block, crank, pistons, rods, in case you decide to build something else!

In reply to patgizz:

pretty sure we have to rebuild it so things for that would help. but then also performance parts. let me know what you have thanks

In reply to bravenrace:

We initially wanted to do a 350 but then we got a 307 pretty much free. Ill let you know if we decide to change course

283 with 327 crank, eh? scribbling down notes

Not sure how well it'd work with the extra stroke, but supposedly 305HO heads do a fair amount of good for 283s... and cheap as hell, to boot. Looking forward to seeing more from this.

No parts but here is a thread about hopping up a 283.
