its got sleeper material because its a stock appearing 83 Z, which isnt known to be fast. no one willl expect 500 hp if you keep that exhaust tone down which wont be too bad since that cam will act fairly tame in that 408… it should sound like a medium cammed 350… cant be any more than 350-400 hp right? wrong! theres another 100 in there and its not a shot ---

Everybody sees a stock-looking 83Z and thinks “it’s a SLED”. That’s why it still has the stock rims on it. I wanted to keep the stock hood too, but I needed clearance. When I’m finally done with it there will be another 100 in it and it WILL be a shot! The kit has been sitting in my garage for about a year now waiting for a decent motor. 🆒 ---
