![]() In all honesty here, big blocks are like small blocks in that stock ones respond to ordinary hot rodding hop up techniques. Just as one can make a 225 hp 5.0 into 450hp normally aspirated engine, one can make a 428 into a 700 hp normally aspirated engine. What a lot of folks want to do is compare a highly modded 5.0 to a stock 428 CJ. What we should be talking about is equally modded engines and then compare hp/CID. Then we might see some advantages of modern roller cams and induction systems. Modded (and I emphasize modded) big blocks can and do produce awesome power.
