Google some of Pat Musi's stuff and take a look at some of the mountain motor classes.

Obviously the parts are light but I'm using this as an example when people say a big block won't rev....or a long stroke won't pull rpms...
Got it... when you said "Pro Stock" I assumed you were referring to NHRA Pro Stock a.k.a. Pro Stock...

I understand your references and your point... I agree. A more accurate generality would be that lighter revs higher and accelerates quicker (engine accel) than heavier, all else being equal. Of course, when comparing SB to BB nothing else is equal... but they sure do go to extremes with the Pro Stock stuff to copy a small block rotating assembly, huh?
