W Rat Or Big Rat

[Razorred]

I Am Looking At Putting A Big Block In My Slammed 66 C10. Which Is Easier To Get Hp Out Of A 348 -250hp Or 1972 402-240hp. Want To Take It From Rat Rod To ????

Either a small or big block is easier and cheaper to get power from than a 348 or 409.

Yeah, but there is no WOW factor involved comparing a small block or big block to any W motor dressed up! WOW factor is always good for a few tenths and a couple mph!
