Yeah, I got the 383 ages ago. It was built for a mate with a Torana, and he sold the Torana before the motor was installed. He needed a few car parts to finish another project and offered me the motor for the parts.
I got a GOOD deal!!!
I was going to throw it in my SL/R, but put my blown motor in instead. Then I was going to put it in my V8 Sunbird sleeper, but I had a 308/trimatic combo that was ready to go, so I used that. Then I had it earmarked for my HJ ute but it's a manual and the 383 is a turbo pattern block, so now I have the van, all I need is a turbo 400 and I'll throw it in there, with maybe a B&M shifter.
I'll get around to it sometime soon........
