lets see them! big blocks!! and blowers if you got them!!
Im going to buy a big block soon and am debating between a blown big block or a naturally aspirated big block. both are around the same HP and torque. So everyone with a big block please post engine pics, and if its blown please post pics and what blower it is..... main concern is fitting the blower under the hood if i go that route.
Thanks alot every! 71Rat!

Re: lets see them! big blocks!! and blowers if you got them!!
I saw this truck at a cruise a few years ago. Not mine but it sure was nice. I don't have any digital under hood shots of my GMC w/402. Looks like a few of the others. Semi stock and quite a bit dirty.

Re: lets see them! big blocks!! and blowers if you got them!!
Hey....the Blue blazer is a small block...cheater!
Question.....how does a naturally aspirated big block compare to a supercharged big block. I contend that a blown big block spanks a non-blown rat.......unless its a pretty radical normally aspirated BB against a mild underdriven supercharged rat.

Re: lets see them! big blocks!! and blowers if you got them!!
thanks everyone for the pics!
Sactojim: it is a semi radical naturally aspirated big block to a mild blown big block, the blown has more potential for more HP down the road then the naturally aspirated one after seeing these pictures i cant wait to have a big block of my own! lol Thanks 71rat
