I had one in a 79 chevy halfton 2 wheel drive with 400 turbo transmission behind it both were built for speed. Tranny had stalls in it til 4000 rpm and motor was done right, heads carbs exhaust intakes. and right now the old truck would run 110 mph in the quarter and never break a tire loose if ya knew how to drive it. It was a great motor til I over heated it one night and cracked the heads replaced it with a built 350 no comparison the 400 would mop it any day me and a buddy rebuilt the 400 for a derby car he had and it was still running last I knew. the 383 is a good motor also for a truck but if going in a car only thing I would rather have is 427 short deck.
