Performance Questions 225 vs. 360

You can build a respectable slant car,but it ain't cheap. 4bbl carb/intake,headers,cam,oversize valves,head work.Add it up,it ain't cheap.
I know,I have one. But I also have a 360 car,and it will WAX the slant car.
Heck,I had a 318 car that would wax all but the most tricked out slant cars.
Not sure if this is helping you,but dollar for dollar,if you want a respectable car,go V8.
