As the title says.
If money was no object,what parts would you use to build the ultimate small block.
Give details of your choice of block,heads,valves,rods,pistons,crank,intake,carb or injection,etc.(no turbo or superchargers please) and your reason why you would use these particular parts.Lets see if on paper at least we can come up with the ultimate kick a$$ small block.

Okay. Gotta ask. Why a tach drive dizzy?

 

[vette427-sbc]

ive been seeing the word dizzy when it comes to distributors, what does it mean?
and a tach drive becaue i have a 69 and i hate having an aftermarket tach on my columb when i could be using a much sweeter factory tach

Not easy to get the parts. But I would happily take a 10.80 ET :thumbsup:

 

[lsejlowe]

lets get some more hard and fast details laid out here. Sounds like people like the aluminum block from motown... should it bored? What specific heads, cam, pistons, ignition, etc?

I'm starting to save right now so I can afford it in 5 years!
