Roger,

I think I'd qualify that the SBF beat out all the other "little" engines, not ALL other engines. This challenge does not allow "big" engines.

It is certainly a sign of the times when the Ford head development has progressed to such a point! I remember when the SBF was almost unusable for most folks due to the lack of valve lash adjustment capability and poor head design in general. Good thing the aftermarket folks have fixed the OEM design downfalls. Sort of levelled the playing field.

It'd be more interesting in my mind to have the ci limit set at 650ci or something like that. But of course that's just my opinion.
