I'm not in agreement with the cylinder head design between Ford and Chevy. The biggest issue was that half of Chevy's offerings around this time were much larger than Ford's. Ford had the 289 and 302. Chevy had a 283, 327, and 350. The Ford head design isn't poor, if you look closely at modern cylinder head offerings in "standard" port/angle layout, you will see that the aftermarket Ford heads perform so much better than a SBC head.

With all that being said, I'm not a Chevy hater, per se. I'm an engine guy all the way around, I just think that Ford has a better product.

In addition, I would give someone the same amount of grief if they stuck a Ford engine in a GM product.
