Why do I need a big block?

The FE big block was replaced by the more modern 385 series big block, 429/460. If you would like to know what the difference is between a small block and a big block, all you would have to do would be to compare the cranks and heads between the two.

It should be a crime to put a 460 in to a decent Cobra. In to a piece-of-crap Cobra, maybe; but not a nice one.

That's Patrick, he wrote the book on "How to win friends and influence people." He also ticked off the "7-11 car oil buying" crowd tonight too.

BTW, was DR385 banned from this site forever? I wonder if we can catch him on TV on a show like "Whatever happened to...?"

I think Ron bounced him for a week, but that was like a month or two ago. Maybe Ron just "forgot" to turn him back on.
