Traded amp for a 383 stroker

Post by subster87 »

I traded my amp and subwoofer that was under my bed for a 383 stroker 350 bored with 400 crank... Most people know some dont. lol Ok so heres the deal. I need a fairly inexpensive 10hm stable amp to run my Q18. I am also now building a show car. Its a 75 nova the 383 is going in it. I need one or two light weight amps to run probably 1 ten and my front and back components. This system with be more A/V bassed becuase well it does well around in shows lol. Ok so a 4 or 5 channel. and 1 mono block thanks guys :thumbsup

its sittin in the shed with a forged crank, its a 350 racing block just a lil different. You know i cant reember what the bore is off the top of my head i have all the parts on order. lunati voodoo cam, forged pistons, forged i beam rods. it has the majority of the engine most of the expensive stuff anyway. I got a muncy four speed with it too.. The engine shoudl be great. But the interior of this car should be amazing. Ill post pix as soon as i can really busy havent been on much

Autotek makes a really nice 5ch that puts out 300x1 and i think 80w x 4 at 2ohms. THe model number is an 8000.5. That would be a good amp for one sub in the back and ur components.
