Re: okay big block guys,i got some questions for you

BigDan3131 i get what your saying, but its just more the fun of it, and i figure its easy to get that power out of a big block than stick a bunch into a small block, everything else is easy to fab up and stick into the truck

BBC parts are more expensive... so you will probably spend just as much.

SBC = less weight up front...

S10 = EZPZ burnouts (no weight out back... so no need for BBC)

SBC + S10 = A lot of fun for way cheaper!

I know the coolness factor of a BBC is appealing... but I lean towards a SBC...
