360-383 A-debate...max builds need not apply.
You guys are funny. Did you ever race a HP 360 Duster against a 68-70 383 Road Runner? No contest in real time or by theoretical numbers. If you want to Bench Race, then who cares. You can make anything up, or make either win or lose. 360's were low compression, most 383's were high compression with about 0 decks. By the time they put the HP goodies on the 360 in 1974, J heads were long gone. What torque did a Road Runner 383 put out? 425 ft.lb. and revved like a good small block? Intake flow for stock 360 heads is roughly between 190 and 200 cfm while stock intake flow for big block heads is roughly between 220 and 230. Ask IQ 52 what is the potential for 906 or 452 heads.
