    Why not just bore the 283 .030 and build a 287. Back in the days of NHRA Modified Eliminator the 287s cranked. In lbs per cubic inch the 287 should a little quicker.

    The big block ford guys are reving to almost 10,000 rpm on cheap parts.....5 or 6 grand tops in money spent stock block / and heads.
    I can see 12,500 rpm for about 8 or 9 grand on a small block.
    I just watched a you tube vid of a guy on the engine dyno turn 18,000 rpm on a small block ,......but it was a 40,000 dollar motor built to do that rpm.
    Its gunna take longer than u thought and its gunna cost more too(plan ahead!)

    No small block chevy will go 18,000 rpm..... Set the tach on 4 cylinders and impress your friends!!!! I've ran big block Fords for years, never seen one go 10 grand, let alone on cheap parts!!!!!

    F1, Pro Stock, NASCAR, and a lot of the pro cars do run lots of rpm.... But in technology, component design, and metals used they are light years ahead of a 283 chebbie.....
