Well folks its time to upgrade my LT1 powered 96' Impala SS. I recently purchased a used LT1 long block and am going to tear it down and build a 383 Stroker. If anyone has any experience with these motors please chime in. Im think now is the time some forged components. Block is almost ready for the build. Wish me luck, doing as much research as possible. Im aiming for a high 400 HP LT-1....

Thanks in advance,

Impala Dave!

Thank you, sir, coming together slowly, I'm seriously thinking of going 6 Speed Borg Warner T-56, There is a mod kit to allow pedal set up for the manual trans setup specifically designed for the impala, now to sell the idea to the wife LOL. Love the BMW u have there.
