One thing to remember, Johnny, is that a smaller engine is easier to achieve a higher hp/cid ratio (meaning make more power for the size) because it generally has about the same size pistons but a much smaller stroke so it revs higher and easier. This helps horsepower, but hurts torque. And TORQUE is what really makes a difference on the street, especially with redlight to redlight races. This is a gross overgeneralization and not entirely accurate, but in general torque provides acceleration and lowend power and horsepower is topend pull and top speed. If anyone else knows a better way to say what I'm thinking, please do so. Horsepower is important, but on the street, torque matters more. And no engine has torque like a built big block...
