HAHA! That motor you see in top fuel and funny car is no where close to what a real "hemi" is... even the new "hemi" isn't like the original hemi... 2 words, marketing scheme

Oh I know, screw the Hemi. I mean the wedge motors, the 440. Then again I'm partial because I have one, but I'll put it this way It's my last Mopar for a while. Nothing against it except cost. I coulda built a pair of BBC's for what I've got in my 440, and it's fairly mild.

Lets say cube for cube...we will even go with big cubes cuz "life dont begin till 500cubes"...so a 502LSX vs a 502BBC I bet your BBC will get SMOKED by a long shot. The LSx will make more power for less money and doesnt need a carb.

obviously youve never heard of an erl ls block i have an aquaintance with a 500ci ls in a zo6 here in dallas.

some one find me a 327 to race, even though its bigger i might stand a chance,.......i would like to make one statement/opinion, a BBC does sound pretty freagin sweet though :D
