Your Right Bandit,I am quoting 60's numbers,,but I thought thats where we all are trying to live,,lol
I'm not trying to start the same old argument,but it was the low or med riser they spoke of,cant remember which,although I have the artical somewhere,I was also mostly talking torque numbers,where the fe was king,,but your right,none of those stand up to todays high tech ,light weight ,efi systems,hp to weight that is.
I just hate the KC/FE bashing from someone who apparently dosent have experience with either.
I still belive it,any engine from 72 back,including 429 scj,BBC on the shelf parts,carb only,FE is King,,,the hemi is there numbers wise,but it is so heavy,and that one truely is a grenade,thats what blows my mind,I still contend a well built fe is very dependable,but again,,not trying to start an argument here,,I like them all,but Fe's make me HOT,,,Tk
