Reply to "big block vs small block"

I am going with the 400 for a couple reason. The cylinder spacing is the same as the cleveland and the length of the engine is the same which means it does not require the moving of the transaxle. The deck height is 1" more. but front to back it is basically the same as the cleveland. They could not use them in Mustangs because of the shock towers. If they could have I am sure this engine would have gotten a lot more attention. It allows me to increase cubic inches without adding a lot of weight. With aluminum heads it should be very similar weight and maybe even slightly less then the cleveland.:

Doesn't mean there are not stubling blocks but that's why God gave us brains. Right?
