Not going there at all.

SBC forever!

Sounds like you'll have a beast no matter what the numbers will be.

Have fun.

I've been curious as friends of mine (and me at times) have stated it will cost more to build a hot BBC than a SBC.

Now I am not trying to hijack this thread so don't tak offense. As I know there is no replacing Displacement on CI.

As I know the BBC make some Monster torque numbers. Okay let me just end this here. Cuz I could make a new thread of BBC vs. SBC and most would go towards the BBC.

I was just wondering aloud while at work.

Cubic dollars is what it takes to go fast, and they sure go alot farther when building a BBC than they do building a SBC or LS based engine.
