Can’t argue about the sound of a big block, but I’m a small block guy from way back, so I gots to go with the brand new Roush small block��
I used to work at a performance shop and I can tell you wilwood master cylinders are not the best. Some of the Baer systems were better IMO. I have a stroker 427 witch I love that said I love the big blocks too.
