Big Block vs Poly
Thank you for the engine weights. The in bold text quoted from you has an issue that the OE poster MUST be made aware of.
There is no way in high heaven or the depths of hades that a LA block and Poly heads can work together
First,I'm not buyin' the 90# reduction in the "B" eng. An alum. int. will
save you 25# 383 TQ vs. Eddy DP,iron heads 88#/pair vs. Stage VI Al. 48#/pair. is 40# saved.
There ain't 25# to start with when you get to the H2O housing,just sayin.And a SB TQ
intake weighs 14# more than the 383 TQ. 52#vs.38#,as well as the heads 97#/pair.And
I'm supposed to believe the poly heads WITH an Al. intake weigh in 5# more on an LA?
Bullshit!!!! Second, um yes,just like every guy running Stage V engineering
Hemi conversion heads,or the unfortunately lost Covalt 32V heads, you just change the
cam......... no welding needed.Yes polys work on LA's w/no more work than any other hot
rod effort,changes are made & mods are performed and SHAZAAM!!!
