    305 to 383

    We got a new radiator for it. The old one had pin holes in three different spots. Think they hit it with the engine, the fins were smashed.

    The 383 is pretty much built. We are going to use the distributor, headers, water pump, and fuel pump from the 305 to put on the 383. Next month it will be put in the truck. I will get pics of it in the truck once we get there.

    What plans do you have for your trucks

    My 305 is tired and wanted to die, so I bored out a TBI 350 and making a 383 for it. I cant wait, just waiting on the pistons to come in and then I can start assembling the block.
