That brings up the other dreaded quwation, that I am sure has been beat to death here before. Big block or small?
I can see the less weight with the SB, better handling, and the new motors are putting out at least what the big blocks were putting out, so other than the very cool sound and bragging rights, Not many reasons to go with the big block from what I am seeing..

Just personal preference,the first time I ever saw and heard a big block Cobra that image was forever burned in my brain.Then the guy opened the hood that sealed the deal.
Everytime I show my car 99.9% of the time they ask to see the engine bay and that good feeling flows through my viens because everytime their is a positive reponse.What little big block cars give up in performance over small block cars if any (that's always argueable) is well worth it in my book.All the years I have owned this car have to say no small block car has ever challenged it for that matter without being on a track what is the argument worth.
We can talk about how fast our cars are all day long it proves nothing.Just like the big inch Harleys we prefer to build and ride in the end they are built and tuned to please only one person and his name is on the title.
Big blocks rule! from what I'm seeing.How was that for .02 worth of flapping the gums.
