I dont think that long , really got popular with the TPI 383s, if you wanted big cubes in SB just get the 400sb, otherwise just get a 454 and a torch....lolQuote:

1970 to be exact. The 400 small block was never glorious in it's stock configuration howeverQuote:

I did see one that had a oopsy.. Dome tops plus tall cam sometimes equals ... head that looks like someone took a BFH to it .....lolQuote:

ALl this for my future lunati voodoo or comp xfi hydraulic flat
yeah it has siamese bores but it doesnt affect the outer dimentions of the block.Quote:
