Not Ranked
Hi,
While that may be true, with the advent of stroker kits, it doesn't fit within the essence of what the small block was really about. Ask anyone, 289 vs 427, which is considered a small block? Typically, most of the guys I travel with, who all happen to be FORD guys, think of the traditional SBF as a 260, 289, 302, yes maybe the 352, but, not when we have the stroker kits that boost the CIs to 408 and beyond.
Again, when I open the SBF portal, and as one who wants to offer some modicum of my experience in design and build of "SBFs" for maximum performance, I don't to wade thru the mega blocks beyond the 351. But hey, that's me. I can easily drift on to another forum.
BTW, my 289/333 makes a comfy 392 RWHP @ 5900 with 401 RWTQ @ 4400, and was designed and assembled by me.
Happy Trails to those that care.
