No offense to the guys saying this because I understand your point, but to compare the disparity between the LS and Gen III Hemi engines vs B/RB engines (and any other popular performance engine from the musclecar era) to the disparity between the 60s performance engines and the flatheads is just plain stupid.

WOW, LS guys have heads that flow 400 cfm? So do we, why don't you go buy a pair and bolt them on? A company called Brodix makes them, maybe you've heard of them? Too expensive? Edelbrock makes a nice cheap head that can get there too with some serious work. And theres another company called Indy that makes good heads for us.

They have aftermarket blocks? Those bastards! But so do we. And the blocks that they have look more expensive than ours. Sorry guys, this is turning into a thread of guys who sit around and gripe about how good the LS engines are and how we get no support from the aftermarket. Maybe we don't have it the best but it's not that bad and its the best its ever been. They do it on the mustang forums too, I swear there are Ford guys who believe that the 98-02 F body LS1 cars ran 12.80s stock. Why even turn this into an LS1 vs Gen 3 Hemi deal when we can make very good power with a B/RB engine. Thats hardly a Flathead Ford complex.


nobody said BB mopes don't make power, can a BB make 650hp with stock rockers,lifters, OEM head castings,OEM intake and run great on pump gas? Can it do it without a distributor? Haha nope......


Mopar to the bone!!!
