The Mopar BB is basically a truck engine. That is why it has the tall deck, tall pistons, heavy skirt, tiny ports, etc. The Mopar engineers could've built a low deck 451 or 470 with MW heads back in the early 70's and kicked Chevy to the curb but they didn't do it. A low deck 470 with MW heads and a big 4bbl would've been surprised a lot of street guys back in 1972!
Or better yet, a 500 inch low deck, with a set of modified high port max wedge heads that would accept an RB max wedge intake, preferably 2 4bbl. Add 1.7 rockers maybe? A motor like that could be built to 500 hp without breaking a sweat. And it would have TORQUE!
