Default 1964 Chevy ll 283/220 hp

Haven’t really found any info on this combination? Has it not been tried in this car? Or is this just a bad combination for this car? I have a 1964 chevy ll that I would like to do something with. Not looking to break any records just something to get me .5-.6 under. Is it worth trying? What’s the good and bad of this combination? Thanks for any input

Nothing wrong with it, except for the cost of building a 283 today.
You don't use many original parts

If your running stock the newer NHRA rules have made it a little easer to be competitive with this combination. Roller rockers, beehive springs and a three speed transmission helps.

Jim, the 283 is fun, but won’t be as good as the 327 250 hp combo. If you ran G stick it might be fun, but there are a lot of combos that are better
