Which one is stronger overall? I am talking a 5.7 vs. a 340...non X-Block. No block fill...studs and caps OK...same mods to each.
Thanks
Curt
Oh yeah...THAT'S gonna leave a mark!

New hemi.
The cylinders tend to be nice thick and uniform plus they got cross bolted mains.
I am not causing global warming, I am just trying to hold off a impending Ice Age!
