If you have been following me, you know I am on a quest to find a bolt in crate motor answer to our lack of engine future availability.

I posted a link to the HT383. I believe it could be the answer. And I will have a kit with pan and front mounts my the end of the month.

http://www.hotrod.com/articles/gm-ht383-crate-small-block-tune-up/

There have been requests for a more modern transmission. I have done tons of research and I may have an answer, but it does go sideways. The experts I talked to say the 4T80e will live a very long life behind the HT383. they are cheap and plentiful. The people I talked to said find a 60,000 take out in the $500 price range fill it with synthic fluid and run it. Rebuilds are expensive because they almost never need them. The trans is available with a 3.71 gear and even in OD the HT383 should make enough torque to run down the road at 2500 rpm. Controllers are available. This is a little more development than I can afford to do on my own. There will be a lot to figure out. But things like CV joints and axles can be done all GM. Probably the worst will be having to go with electric fans. But I believe with a modern aluminum radiator it can be done. FYI the LS will not fit in front of the 4T80e. and only the 5.3 LS4 fits in front of the 4t65E-HD, and my experts say that trans won't live in our application. Who want to get involved?
