Any advice from current owners is much appreciated.

Where does Superformance recommend small blocks?
And the weight distribution issue is for the most part a bunch of garbage.
Total weight difference is generally in the 200 pound range, and the weight distribution varies from 48/52 for a sb to maybe 50/50 at worse for a bb.
And I can easily lose 45 pounds of unsprung weight by going back to the Goodyear BB from the Avons.
