Jerry, I ran the 283 bored .125. Ran like a scalded dog with and Arkus-Duntov cam......till my brother ran it hot at the dragstrip, while I was in the hospital.

I need to check out a local rail dragster friend of mine. He has a 283 he says he'll let me have cheap. I need to see what cheap is!

For what its worth..... I've recently read a couple articles about GM 283 test engines and one I remember being in a '56.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
