There is a guy at our local track that has a 440 Duster that goes mid 11's and he and I have been track buddies for several years...nice guy.
When he first saw the Duster run (first night out) he walks up to me after a 10.3-something lap and says "Now there ya go, put a big block in there, huh?" I say no, just a mild 416 with iron heads. He laughed and looked at me like I was nuts.
At the trailer, I see him and his buddies walking over and yes we had the hood off and yes, he left with his feelings hurt. So much so that I've seen him at the track many times since and he won't even look at me let alone talk to me.
I've had several make the comments that it "just cannot" be a small block. Once after a lap a guy walks by the car and gives me a dirty look after peeking between the fenders. Found out that they had just run a 9.98 for the first time. In a back halfed, light weight, fiberglass, lexan, etc...Valiant with a 500" Indy head motor. Anyone that would listen to him, he was 100% positive we had Nitrous on the car. "No f-ing way" he said about "that thing" going that fast without it.
People are so funny...

And I thought I was alone with my experiences.
Try running 8.0's against a field full of BB Mopars with either nitrous, blown alcohol, or supercharged with the only car with all the stock chrome, glass, trim. The new guys would run over to see and then go tell their friends that you had a million dollars in your motor or whatever BS they could make up as the excuse for you kicking their ARS. Even the Mopar magazine editers would make up BS to make out like you were doing something over the top to run the numbers.

I owned a 340 once before too, I used it to crank over my 440  To answer your question I'm not really sure, I prefer big blocks but Mopar power is Mopar power.

Boy, if you only knew how much that post is right in my wheelhouse....lol
Gary (Unlawfl) and I used to have some epic smallblock/bigblock threads on here. Many of the old timers I am sure remember them.
For about 4 seasons I raced in a ten flat shootout points series up at Mid Michigan Motorplex( Stanton). Very competitive bunch of guys in that class, stock suspension, no ladder or 4 link, 12 measured inches of DOT or a ten inch slick allowed, mufflers required yada, yada on a 4 tenths pro tree.
There were usually about 18-22 cars show up. In the 4 years I raced in it, there were a total of 3 small block cars. Myself, a 434 Nova, and a firebird with a 383 smallblock stroker and a blower.All the rest were all big blocks. That is a pretty good sampling size, as cars kinda came and went that didn't consistently go rounds over those years. There was a 200 pound weight break I got being smallblock N/A, but my car weighed 50 pounds over what a N/A big block was required to weigh for the class.
Lot of doggy, and shaggy, cut up, lightened big blocks out there, even crammed into A bodies that are cut up and still run mid tens or worse. Its not unusual at all, its WAY the norm

I know of a black 70 Cuda( about same weight) that ran 9.0x, with just BIBA heads( doubt they flow as much air as big block eddies do) with a 3.79 crank that he raced forever. Many guys on here saw it run as he raced at the Mopar events with it for a long time. Currently has a w8 smallblock in it and has been at least 8.70's, if not quicker as I haven't seen it yet this season, but I am sure it will be at Norwalk, and was probably at Indy with it.

Will I'll have to offer my when I ran a small block W2 340 in Denver it would beat most of the big block Mopars back in the 80's Fast forward to 2000 Dakota pickup super charged 360 best it ran 10.60 at 125 mph before it went boom. Put in a big block ran 10.12 at 135 it had a mild cam in it at the time say what you want but when you have lot's of cubes with very little head flow makes for a disappointing outcome. Still have that same big block just more cam runs 8.69 in my car  I under stand the small block verses big block been on both sides but will stay with the big block.
best so far 8.53 @ 158.59 MPH 60'1.240

I think I will stick with my BB. Was a SB guy back in the 80's-90's when we had few choices for good heads. So the best options I saw was a SB with W2's. The early 90's we switched to our first B1 deal and it ran well, well enough to make a few paperweights out of stock blocks. BUt I will say I have been a BB guy since the mid 90's, not that I wont go back but would take something special to make that happen, or a switch to Comp Eliminator which I don't really see in my future since I don't play the lottery.

I gotta say I love them both but it kills me with the Daytona sitting here and the 572 sitting on the engine stand. It only had 10 passes on it in 2010 when I wrecked the Daytona so i will freshen it up this Winter and install the B1 heads and put it in either the Daytona if I finish it or the Duster. The Duster is only certified to 8.50 with no updates in the works. I bought a alcohol system a few months ago so it may be put to use. I haven't payed for race gas since 2010 an it would kill me to pay that much to race every week.

I was a guest at a track rental by a local car club. My '66 was running low 15's and a guy with a '70 Nova called me out. He had been bragging about the LT-1 he had. I put a gate job on him and beat him about 5 cars. He came up in the pits and told me I had a good running 318. He crapped his pants when a buddy opened my hood for him and showed him the Slant. To add insult to injury he hoped in his car and it wouldn't turn over. No one has seen him since.

I beat a guy that was irked because my Duster had a car seat in the back.
Apparently he thought it was a prop that I put in the car to purposely humiliate him. It was actually for my 4 year old daughter and was such a PITA to remove that I just left it in the car.

Not trying to start anything but I used to run small block Mopar and they it ran in the early 11's high 10's but I had a lot of money into it. I built a 9.5/1 440 30 over with TRW flat tops, 452 cast iron heads with 2.14 1.81 and a bowl port and a 850 holley with a 727 and 430 gear and it ran 10.43 in the same car with very little tuning. It only cost me around 2500.00 and some used parts I acquired at swap meets. Its more a "the bang for the buck!" I loved my 340 notchback, it was a monster on the street. Its just cheaper to go fast with the Big Block.

guys will come up to me, asking about the car, when I tell them it has a 360 in it, they respond with "oh" and walk away... I apologize its not a BB or a hemi, or even a 340

i had a guy walk over to my car in the pits and pop the hood...
I was walking back to my car at the time and was pretty annoyed ...that someone would have the nerve to do that with out my permission...he was with a few other guys..
I said "can i help you"? ...
they thought it was a big block..and were surprised it was not...
we couldnt have a conversation because of me being pissed about him touching my car with out my permission..
I said..."how about i go over and lift up your wifes skirt and take a look?"
that didnt go over well....and i did not make any new friends that day..
found out he has a big block dart tubbed with wheelie bars and 2x4s sticking out the hood.that runs high 11s.
365" Iron J heads,,3480lbs best 1.39 60ft on SS springs.10.54,124 mph ...6.67 1/8th et.average 60fts 1.46 w/ small cam &.063 no2 pill tagged & insured

Whenever I run into a mopar brother at the track or whatever BB/SB - NA or power adder I am more impressed by what it does for what it is.

guys will come up to me, asking about the car, when I tell them it has a 360 in it, they respond with "oh" and walk away...
I apologize its not a BB or a hemi, or even a 340
I wonder if it's the same way in the bow tie world. I think the ford guys no the Windsor is where it,s at
It most def does happen to chebby guys also.I heard like 5 or 6 people look at my boys sb2 motor and tell their friends or children....Look at how big the bb is. kinda funny to watch.

I have both BB and SB powered mopars and both run very well. The Demon with the production headed, [587 castings], sm block, flat tappet cammed, stroker 360/418 has gone 9.68 at 136mph with a 1.26 60ft. at 3100#, on gas. The LeBaron with a production headed, [915 castings], Big Block, flat tappet cammed, stroker 383/449, has gone 9.02 at 149mph at 2450#, also on gas. They both have equal effort, and cost, in building them. The BB runs a little hot and the sb runs cool. I have also had the guys walk away in disbeleif after seeing the Demon go down the track and then see the stock appearing sm block under the hood    An all iron sm block munching an all aluminum big block
