Clean the garage first,think later.
I have the opportunity to trade a basically stock dissassembled BBC that's in need of a rebuild for a 350 hp small block that needs a head gasket.
I know there's a pretty big weight savings with the small block and they can be made to make some pretty big HP for less money.
thoughts?

I can't believe you're goimg to start this up again. BBC, Cubic inches, BBC
Sure, "it can be done" with a small block. But do it the easy way, BBC BBC.
Okay guys, jump on me.
you'll be short on ski pullin torque, FOREVER! :hammerhea

I'll jump on with you, Duane. There's NO substitute for cubic inches. Every small block out there is lacking only one thing.
DISPLACEMENT! :hammerhea

Cas,
Its like this, to get a small block to work as good as a BB you have to stroke it, and stoke it. But in the end it will never be a BB. All SB want to be BB when they grow up. You have a BB and all the equiptment and hardware to make it work. Now you would neeed to get all that new or used somewhere. A small block has to rev higher to do what a Big Block does at just off idel. Save the money on the conversion and rebuild the Big Block.
Good Luck Steve

BBC-----THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE..JUST ASK THE GUYS WHO RUN FORDS IN THERE TOYS....

Your right there is no substitute for a Big Bad Ford. If my BBF broke and I had a choice between a SBF and a BBC sorry I would go SBF. But thats me I have Blue blood running in my vains.

ok, I already have a boat with a BBC. I'm contemplating this for the Tahiti/Panther that's become a sleeping place for our cat in the back yard.
No intention on racing it, not even half a thought of making it go faster than maybe 65.
YEA-------I ONCE BLEW A FRIEND OF MINES BBF DOORS OFF SO HE TRAILERED IT HOME PULLED THE MOTER SPENT TONS OF $$$$$ AND DID ALL THE WIZZY STUFF HE COULD THINK OF .. AND YEP YOU GUESSED IT --------- I BLEW HIS FREAKEN DOORS OFF AGAIN... :cry: .
