so, I'm posting this in the general discussion, because it is KIND of a general question....and I'll background this a little.....I own a 383/727 combo that need rebuilt, I plan on using the car for Autocrossing, Road Course racing, Street driving, possibly some top speed type stuff and some occasional drag racing (maybe....maybe I'll build another one for street/drag....not sure) guessing that the 5.7 hemi is lighter, can the difference in weight be balanced out on the wagon to make 383 a viable option in this car, or do I spend the money on a takeout 5.7 hemi? It isn't really that money is no object, but more that by the time i rebuild the 383 and put some sort of good/great heads and a cam in it, I think I'll have about the same money in it.......input, please....oh, and I figure the 727 will go away and be replaced by a 5 or 6 speed, unless I decide to use the whole combo in something else.....
