I'm not saying one ways better then the other but it does defineately depend on the area your in. That being part of the reason I chose a small block. Around here there are too many fast A-E cars that I know I counldn't keep up with on my limited budget. I also agree it's probably easier to run -1.0 with a big block.

Rick what do you base your statement on ,easier to run a 1sec under?, ask your dad if you have 20 25 to spend on a 375 410 then you may be able to run close to that in good air. 200 ft emmons went 10.15 with the best motor his engine ever built. only cost 30. a 270 350 is way better. Jim Hanig
