Agreed, you can get a shitload of torque out of a big block, but for the street I trust the reliable 350.
Plus I think big blocks cost to much to build for street applications.
I orginally was going to go with a big block for my Blazer but the small block does what I want it to. My torque numbers are in the mid 400s and for what I am doning with it it suits me.
If I ever build another mud car its going to get a big block, I just have other cars I want to build right now.
