top 20 V8 engines of all time…

My opinion is a LA Chrysler engine is easier to work on than a small chevy.
1. You change the intake without removing the distributor.
2. The distributor is easier the replace. Its either dead on or 180 out.
3. Doing a head swap, No rocker adjustment needed its plug and play(unless its a 273 with adjustable rockers)

Ditto,...There's been at least one 318 on this house for as long as I could remember,...first engine I ever worked on @ the ripe old age of 10,...have a running argument with my best bro (chivy guy),...that pound for pound and dollar for dollar a chrysler will beat a chivy,...i.e...318 vs 327,...or 340 vs. 350.
