Enough of the little horsepower pissing match, it's time for the fast cars to have their pissing match.
I'll be honest, my loyalty to the P-motor doesn't run very deep. They are WAY to expensive for the HP you get. The ONLY advantage i can see from a performance standpoint is the weight, and i'm not sure it's as big as everyone imagines (guessing less than the weight of a decent passenger). The SBC is easier to work on, builds more HP easily, lasts longer at the same HP level, and sounds better (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/flipa.gif) (subjective i know). You do lose the front trunk, but a 914 is not a practical car to start with, so no biggy (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/boldblue.gif) I understand people wanting to keep the bloodlines true and blah blah blah.. isn't that kinda like in-breeding? please discuss (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving-girl.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/burnout.gif) |

SBC thats to easy folks put it in any and every thing Ho HUM Boring (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) I know I am following in Ricks footsteps with the 928 engine so its not uncharted waters. It is also something you dont see every day and can not just go get parts off the shelf to build. But it will have the cool sound of the V8 its going to have the 5 inch long flowmasters (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool_shades.gif). I would have done the 6 just because I dont like to follow the normal stick a SBC crowd. Now if I had an old 427 L88 or the AL. block ZL1 OH BABY (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool.gif) You know what I am trying to say. I follow the crowd but on my own path (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/huh.gif)
