a small block with ally heads and intake is very light. a 408 (stroker 360) with that top end will make good and reliable power too. just saying...... :thumbsup:
neil.
True, but I don't think there is any way a SB could match the efficiency though. And add a Procharger or Ripp to it and make 450+ hp and (probably) keep the 30+ mpg and now you are running away from a BluePrint 408 due to better gearing (assuming it doesn't have an 8A) and less weight. Certainly not for everyone, but not a bad option IMO. Pluses and minuses for everything.
