Quote: It's not a Mopar comparison but it is somewhat relevent to the arguement. I think it was Hot Rod a few years back that built two engines, a small block 406 and a big block 406, same cam profile. I cant remember the Dyno numbers but the big block heads flowed better so it kicked butt on the small block. They both went in the same Chevelle with the weight the only difference, the smallblock managed 12.50's I think and the big block ran 12.30's or 12.20's, even with the weight disadvantage and the same cubes.
The only reason the big block won was because the gear and converter favored it. You cant use the same gear and converter becuase the big block made more torque.
472HEMI you might as well pull the v-10 and put in a 340 because when you don't get the truck out of the garage it doesn't really matter. They both will rust away to nothing at the same rate.
