To Stroke, or not to Stroke

Daredevil, how bad spendy are those heads , real bad? I have read some about them and they sound pretty cool.

I guess I have always figured that BB are the beasts and I have mostly had SB cars and am always getting spanked in the stock world by BB's plus being a Missourian requires me by state law to doubt it! Not saying that there are not fast SB out there because I have raced some and been beat, I have raced againest some V6 ricers in my street rod that are truely bad to the bone, But I was in my SB 48 bowtie. At what cost does it take to get a sb to the BB stomping zone? Can you drop in a cam, bore it .30 over and add a carb and intake and headers and turn as fast a times as a BB with the same improvements?
