Good point Bob, but I have to admit that I dont understand why the helper spring wont work.

If the car is jacked up and supported at the front portion of the rear frame rails, and the springs are now arched since the wheels are off the ground, and you install / bolt on the spring helpers, How will it not help maintain the arch once the rear is lowered back down? At least in the portion which the helper spring was bolted down on can not return to it's original "flatness".
I hate to admit to it but as a kid with little money I tried most of the crap out there from emergency adjustable fan belts, muffler bandage, Long shackles, helper springs, maybe there improved, trans stop leak. I don't think your going to run a helper spring with the 383 in the car? The springs won't work right for traction or ride.
ooooooh, ok. Now I see where the issue is..... Bob, when you were a kid, you were working on the Flat Head Six. Ok, after that something called the Slant 6 came out, that's what I'm working on.... :lol:
Yeah I have issues. Thank Got the worst one is way over in Pittsburgh, PA :snowball:

hi, go with a 4bbl. don't waste time or money on a 2bbl. the people selling the 2bbl stuff think its gold plated. it makes it fun to beat up on the 383 guys. its a little harder with the 440 guys, but not much. this is a holley 600 i took off a 440. i thought it would be too big and too rich ,but it was on my shelf. i started with #60 jets in pri and secondary with tall yellow vac spring. it runs very good. first pic shows unsilenced air cleaner assy installed. a hot slant has a sound of its own. use what you have. ron

Now that's a cool set-up. Did you mill the head to increase compression? Cam? What else did you do to that motor? 600 cfm seems like a lot. How does she run?
