RE: Hemi vs. Max Wedge

[SB <polecat2@xxxxxxxx>]

My friend has a 1968 Dodge Monaco, 103k miles, 383 two barrel, which has 
less compression than your older two barrel 383.  We put a stock four 
barrel iron intake with a Holley 700 carb, and dual exhausts on its 
log-style, non-performance original exhaust manifolds.  This is a two 
ton four door with 2.76 gears, and it now runs like a rabbit.  We were 
going to change the cam, but it runs so smooth and strong that it just 
ain't gonna happen.  We were stunned by its new power.  Just make sure 
your ignition is good, and your distributor advance mechanisms are 
functioning well.

There is also a case to be made it seems to just upgrade my exisiting 
383 2 bbl.  I guess I could squeeze a few horses out of it with a 4 bbl. 
better manifold, and better cam, plus dual exhausts without modfifying 
it too much.
