DART/ERE-383 SHOWN WITH OPTIONAL EDELBROCK MANIFOLD

The Dart/ERE-383 mixes a Race ERE-383 with a bone stock Dart Pro-1 (180cc) LT1 cylinder head. This head is installed "out-of-the-box".  Although the heads are unported they are still good performers for a mildly wild 383LT1.  Advanced Induction Cylinder Head Development has kindly tested a box-stock set of these heads.  Please see the flow sheet at this link.  Note that this engine features shaft rockers made by Probe USA.
