Guys- Forget all the tech stuff for a minute. Forget about the pros and cons of both styles. Forget weights and setups for a moment........ It costs much more to race bigblocks the right way. MUCH MORE. True the costs of building both styles engines is similar but that is only a small part of the picture. In the end if you do build a big block car "right" what happens? The small engine guys will say, "well he should have won, look at all that bad boy stuff he has". The big block guys will say it's about time. The real racers will recognize the true effort it took. ( both of them) In the end you will have much less money in your pocket. For a trophy? Maybe a time listed in some kit car rag? Maybe you will impress your girlfreind or wife? I don't think so, at least not for me anyhow. Now I got to ask you. To race a big block, do you really want to go there?????? Stiil a neat thread though.
