Default Re: Time capsule 410 miles..wow

Brute straight line acceleration owing to torque.
Fight goes to BBC.
Singing the song of revs,turnin the twisty mountain hiways,
Fight goes to SBC.
I'm sorry, but I haven't found a big block car that keeps up to me in the twisty's.

Gotta love em both, but two different animals.

Having said that, every time I got in my last Malibu, I revved my mech. roller 427 (stock gm steel crank, stock dimple rods ..albeit the full meal prep deal,, to 8500.

As I bought it used, It also had been beat on prior to my ownership, with a 300hp hit of nitrous, and the ungodly revs.
It never missed a beat or broke any parts while I owned it, so if its built to rev, there's no reason to hold back.

Now, granted that may not apply to stock or restoration BBC's and/or 454's because of the longer arm....

Pedal to the metal!!
