Undersquare vs. Oversquare Engines
I agree with moper in regards to an LA stroker in an A-body being a great road racing package due to the low weight and high torque output. My X's dad has been building road racing cars for the SCCA and other circuits since 1966. In the couple years that I had the chance to pick his brain he taught me that torque was key in getting out of the corner before the other guy. Look what this guy can do with an engine that he never really brings up much more than 6K and it's a big block hemi. Note what RPM's he's turning as he pulls out of a turn. Turn up your volume!:
