not really... a built 408 vs. a mild 460? bet the 460 idles smoother..

and parts for a 460 arent any more expensive than a small block..
stroker kits are about the same.. heads are close too... set of AFR 205's or canfields arent much less than a set of blue thunder or FRPP heads.. and there's talk of making a set of iron copies of the new SCJ head..

BTW, the 460 is smaller in size than a 4.6... go figure

FWIW, I debated on a 347 and the big block.. but at the power levels I want, a 302 block wouldnt last.. the 460 will...

bigger IS better
