Hi,
I bought a worn-out Cobra some time ago and try to renew it step by step. It has a 1969 327 engine (and a TH350) which runs quite good but consumes too much oil. The main question now is if it makes sense to rebuild the engine or buy a completely overhauled stroker. I don't want to race with my car but as I live in Germany and we don't have a speed limit on many streets the engine might be subject to high rpms over a longer period (30-60 mins). I know that a 383 will deliver a huge torque at low rpms but does it stand rpms over 5500 permanently? Sorry if my questions are so silly but I am a newbie regarding that topic and there is almost no chance to find v8 experts over here. Thanks
