BINGO !
I`ve been wondering about the engine sizes in these posts , 318 / warmed over ? 340/ warmed over , warmed over 440 ?
Or an all in street 500 plus inch engine in a tiny engine bay . Makes a hell of a bunch of diff. !

Big blocks also cool differently though. The HP to cubic inch ratio is important as well, because it gives you a better idea of how hard the engine is working. A 500 hp big block would be easier to cool than a 500 hp small block. That Contour V6 is harder to cool than most of the engines that guys run here, 1.3 hp per cube and pretty much packed in solid. Even a big block in an A-body has TONS of room compared to that v6.
