Id much rather be hashing this out over a few cold ones in the garage
Like I said no internet wars...you have your opinion, I have mine and we will agree to dissagree.
Not sure where you are from but we are surrounded by stock car hillbillys that have used up all of our good castings and because of economical times in our "steel town" alot of good castings have been scaled at the wreckers in trade for a 12 pack of cheap beers. All of our wrecking yards are picked of anything 1978 and down...its very rare to see a 441 head...usually its a 336X. Every good set of castings in our yards are gone. I will admit i am a die hard stock eliminator fan....I have been on the hunts for cars and castings only to come up with rotten old junk...our best find was a 69-70 Impala (so smashed and rotten we needed to contact next of kin to tell us what it was) 350 300hp that was in this yard since 1971. Yank'd the heads and intake only to find the heads were so rotten the valves were part of the chamber. There was a q-jet onto of the intake that resembled whats in a box of powdered pancakes. This is what turned me off of "casting number" racing and got me into crate class. Vortec heads, any intake under the stock hood, 750 carb, stocker cam and it will run. And if you want to go 5 under the index no trick parts required...5+ and up buy the trick parts.
