Question Which Big Block?
Ford Racing offers two SVO 460 blocks. One has a deck height of 9.000, with 4-bolt mains (M-6010-A500). It has a different bolt pattern for the heads, and uses the Ford Pro Stock canted valve aluminum heads (M-6010-E460) with huge 2.45 intakes and 1.88 exhausts.

The other block is 10.32" tall, with 4-bolt mains on #2,3,& 4 (M-6010-A460). It uses the standard CJ, Edelbrock or Blue Thunder heads.

Is there any advantage to using the shorter deck height block? Those heads sound like they could really wake up the 460.

Thanks
