Shoot buddy that's beautiful I have a 72 and just ordered a 383 stroker 515 hp for the old girl and those haters are just jealous bud beautiful ride !!
I love how she says "oh my goodness just back up". doesn't realize that those cars needed to be warmed up a bit before they would idle right and not die
Last week there was a dragster for sale on Racingjunk.com with a procharged 383 that ran in the mid 7.50's. Do the math on the online 1/4 mile calculator. Thats over 1000 hp.
That's a mans car, no ac, looks like no power steering and engine bay looks cleaner than a nun on a Saturday night... drive it like you stole it...*built
thanks for the comments even u haters and doubters all i know its a fun ass ride and ive got the wall of trophys to back it stay tuned on my youtube channel 383novacaine cause i still have a bottle with a 125 shot under the garage bench then maybe ill make 400 hp wink wink
Here is a short Chevy SB History lesson for those doubters and haters. It's not that hard to make a lot of horsepower from a Small Block Chevy. These are factory ratings, not mine; and they were usually under-rated numbers. With a longer stroke like the 383, better flowing heads and intake, then the right cam/lifter set-up and you have a Monster! The Small-Block's Timeline '55: The small-block V-8 is introduced in '55 Chevrolets as a 265. This is the beginning of the Gen I.'57: 1/8-inch bore increase raises displacement to 283ci; the Ramjet mechanical fuel-injection system was introduced, bringing horsepower to 283--1 hp/ci.'62: Displacement increases to 327ci with a 4-inch bore and a 3.25-inch stroke. Ramjet fuel-injected versions are rated at 360hp'64: Cylinder head improvements (2.02-inch intake valves) bump the 327's highest horsepower rating to 375 with fuel injection.'67: A little-known option called Z28 is released for the Camaro only, which includes a high-revving 302ci small-block for competition in SCCA Trans Am road racing. A 350ci (5.7L) version (in the Camaro) debuts and will become the quintessential small-block variant.'68: A Camaro Z28 wins the Trans Am championship.'70: 350ci LT1 debuts in the Z28 Camaro and Corvette and is rated at 360/370hp respectively; 400ci small-block is offered--the largest-displacement small-block built to date.
I have an 83 cutlass sounds like ur Nova waiting on my rear end to get done ,but until I get my car back I love to listen to ur Nova the baddest Nova a round peace
That is a beauty. My guys on tbe process of putting a 383 stroker into his 74 Chevy Nova. It's been a process with wiring issues. He's not getting much help with diagrams. The motors in he's just trying to fire her up. It ran great with the 350 but he wanted MORE POWER! Great car you have. His looks very similiar the black like that. It sounds like Christine. Enjoy!
that's a beautiful sounding and looking car. obviously built and clean. for those that judge by the cover, there is way more under all that, cam, rockers, pistons, fuel delivery, exhaust.
awesome. I have a 92' caprice wagon that I want to put the 383 stroker into. It has the 305 and yeah. Good enough excuse to put a better heart into it. Glad you got one with a decently high amount of HP.
Weak ass comments on here, just reinforced the new American way, so ready to doubt or put down someone else's stuff in the belief it'll make the commentators look better or smarter. The car is nice, and you cant tell tell the hp, without knowing the specific internals and the exhaust used. Even worse the internet bums challenging him to race and selling their crappy resume. Enjoy a man making a nice car. Congratulate for a change, be a human,not a hater.
I had a 383 built up for my old 75 Stingray. Cost me close to $13,000 Canadian by the time it was done and it put out 450hp and 450tq. It was carbureted and lumpy as fuck like this Nova. If I were to do it again.... I'd buy Chevrolet's SP383 Connect & Cruise combo and throw a Holley EFI system on top. Those EFI's run so smooth, easy start up and nice idle, quick throttle response.
I love novas to all hell 5 years ago me and my dad built a 62 convertible, we put independent rear suspension, ford 9 inch with Holden vl commodore brakes, Chevy 350 small block and rack/pinion steering I’m not a big fan of the seats but thank god there is no blacked out chrome on your nova
I LOVE IT! To hell with the negative people. Wish I hadn't sold my 69' Chevelle. Since the recent sale of my 08 mustang I am looking for the perfect 80-93 mustang. Man the car is perfect and I think real men stay true to real horse power. All I can say is “F” YEAH! Don't make the same mistake and sell. Keep it and show people what is really up. "F" Yeah!
I don’t know what his engine specs are but mine is a 383 4 bolt main (0.040 over 3.750 Stroke) with a forged crankshaft. I have a duel plane airgap intake with a Holley EFI system on top. 64cc aluminum heads with 2.02/1.60 valves (195cc intake/75cc exhaust runners). The cam is a comp roller cam .536/.555 lift 224/236 duration at 113 LSA (kinda wish it was 110LSA). The engine is 8.5:1 compression and makes 448HP / 446 ft lbs. I chose to build the motor with a lower compression because I wanted to put a supercharger on it eventually but now I have changed my mind. If I had 9 or 10:1 compression and better heads I wonder if I could top 500hp. I may change the pistons someday to bring my compression up, but I am happy with how the engine is running and I don’t know if I want to mess with it. I have seen huge HP gain in engines with top quality heads, but the bottom line is I don’t race my vehicle and I don’t need 500hp at 7000rpm. I would rather have more torque below 5000rpm. My build was engine dyno tested with a 750CFM Holley carb, but I assume the Holley EFI is about the same. I have not run the truck on a chassis dyno so I have no idea what the rwhp is. I am sure a loss of 20% via the drive train is to be expected.
I love stupid people! You make life interesting that's for sure! Btw no one can tell HP from a cam lope from a video. I've heard cammed out steel headed 305's sound like that! However common sense will tell you the average 383 now days makes between 450-550hp and some competent builders have hit 600+ on an engine dyno. Just cuz someone says a HP number doesn't mean whp! This guy never claimed whp. You guys shouldn't doubt this man's claims! If he wanted to exaggerate his HP numbers he'd be claiming 650 or some shit. 530 is fairly easy to attain from an aluminum headed 383 stroker! Look up TriStar engines, West coast engines etc they all EASILY get over 500hp from 383's. It's a nice car either way!
A 383 Stroker is basically a Cheat Code to make 600 horsepower easy on a 350 block, bored. Just gotta have Forged Internals as Insurance so you won't break it. It'll be too tempting to redline this baby every time.
You don’t need to stroke it to make 600hp. Hell a stock bore 350 can make 600+ if built right just needs higher compression, good set of flowing heads and a cam from hell!
Used to work at a airport and the owner of the flight school owned a 1970 Z28 Camaro with a 383 in it and he showed me Dyno numbers made 540rwhp. Would Burn Rubber all the way through 3rd gear
I've 1984 Chevrolet silverado k10 wit a 305 small block wit elderbrock aluminum intake and head gasket covers and I'm thinking bout swapping the 305 and do a ls3 swap wit a bigger cam wit aluminum headers, air intake , and straight pipe exhaust
how streetable is it? give you stallin issues? I know not a perfect street driver...or daily driver... im about to put my 388 in it and it has a .600 lift cam
once it warms up its fine this. was a cold start after it warms up its fine with a huge lope trying to shake shake all the bolts loose people at red lights notice
Yeah, that's why I love my 468 smallblock ,with talldeck ,serious 4.25 inch stroke ,and 4.185 bore,and my 18 degree heads . Dyno on motor Only is 950 h.p.. I'm putting max.5 Control 450 hp plate nos ,and still have a 500 hp fogger nos system. G BODY 78 malibu.by the way I have my car weight down around only2250 pounds. Including tags Registration ,and helment! Real Fun around town and car cruise ins.
This nova sounds so good I can't stop replaying
I have watched this video over and over for years now. At least a hundred times. Still the best sounding 70 nova 383 I’ve heard to date 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Thank you to bad this motor is gone now I have a 417 stroker 600 hp it's nasty
Shoot buddy that's beautiful I have a 72 and just ordered a 383 stroker 515 hp for the old girl and those haters are just jealous bud beautiful ride !!
How can anyone hate this car..
Urban Warhead (Urban Exploration) ricers my friend
Ford people
Only Haters Can
Probably all the punks who drive Honda's with fart mufflers on them
I only hate that I didn't see it in action.
The people that are saying its not 500hp are not familiar with 383s and should not be posting ignorant comments.
Agreed. All these 'experts' on here saying it's not 500hp just by the sound! Da fuck?
Man I love my 383
+Ddm Nn , If you like a 383 as I do then you should try a 396 small block. Just like a 383 except with more torque. FUN FUN FUN !!
Foreal, Definitely seen 383s over 530
Donaldchimp Trumpanzee I agree I had a 420 hp 383 and loved every minute of it, but whats fun is a small block 454 if you can afford to build it 😁
agree. That 383 is a small block that doesn't know it's not a big block.
I love how she says "oh my goodness just back up". doesn't realize that those cars needed to be warmed up a bit before they would idle right and not die
So true... my big block Chevy won't run worth a damn if you don't warm it up
These kids these days known nothing about carburetors 😂
I have seen 600 hp 383s, the people here saying this is not 530 horse are not familiar with this engines capabilities.
Clorox Bleach with enough compression it could go to 700hp

That is SWEET one badass sounding Chevrolet. What's not to like about a 383 stroker they're badass motors
Very nice! 70's Novas rock, and that 383 stroker w/ your cam sounds bad ass!
my dad had a 383 stroker in his 77 box model silverado bad ass truck bad ass engine
1000th like. Had to find a video to show my son what muscle sounds like. Thanks for posting.
I have an 83 cutlass sounds like ur Nova waiting on my rear end to get done ,but until I get my car back I love to listen to ur Nova the baddest Nova a round peace
I have a 383 in my 72 chevelle wagon sometimes I just start it just to hear the wicked cam!
Love the simplicity. Open the hood and just a motor purring and growling at the same time. Ahhhhhh
That’s a sweeeeeeet ride my friend!!!

Awesome car!! Love the sound!! Just put a 383 in my 64 El Camino, great engines. Chevy should have made them as OEM in the 60s,70s models. Haha!!
Used too have a 56 chevy bel air with one of these. They're bad mother fuckers man.
Beautiful car sounds awsome thanks for sharing your pride and joy
Just wait be posting my new 417 sbc just started it last night 587hp 486trq
Can’t wait hope to see it soon good luck with it
My name is Kain and I'm glad I got to hear the car.
Sweet Nova only thing i would change would be the tail pipes turn em down behind the back tires
383 is a torque monster!!!
I'm a huge fan of the 383 stroker motor, I'd take one over an LS in a heartbeat.
Thank you it was a great motor but I wanted more it's now a bowtie block 417 stroker videos are on my channel
hey man thats a bad ass nova
Long live the 383 Strokes. One of the best spec'd motors ever. Strong torque curve from low- mid RPM's and yes 500 plus HP capable. Word!!!
Will nitros hurt the 383
How is it any different to the 400 bore and stroke in performance?
Absolutely stunning and I'm jealous. Don't worry about the haters. She's jaw dropping!
awesome. I have a 92' caprice wagon that I want to put the 383 stroker into. It has the 305 and yeah. Good enough excuse to put a better heart into it. Glad you got one with a decently high amount of HP.

Exactly. If it's only making 200 hp, it's still a very nice car!

love that exhaust note! sweet ride for sure.
Its probably just a small exhaust leak. It sounds amazing and a beautiful car
