Re: Big block pros/cons?
More torque and power. Now, what's the problem?
From what I've seen they fit into a Task Force style truck pretty well.
Loaded I'd think you would get just as good and maybe better gas mileage than a small block pulling the same load. Not spectacular but passable for what you have and what you are doing. And it will climb a grade a lot better. With my small block pulling my boat I am way way over in the slow lane getting passed by VW micro Buses on long grades.
