Dear "Round..."
Another alternative is a combination of both: The "
Clevor ."
This engine combines Cleveland heads with the Windsor Block. These seem to have a home among dirt track racers who often "spin up" the rpms and keep them high (7-9KRPM) as they slip around the track.
One place to look to find out more about "Clevors" is on the Pantera sites. Here is a thread to go to:

An Aluminum "Clevor" looks to be a desirable option too and can be built for a pretty penny.
If you are looking for advice about which engine to choose, the answer lies in what you plan on doing with it. If you plan on racing a la NASCAR or dirt track, then the Clevor is a desirable option. If you plan on running on the street and want your car to be mellow enough to drive around town, a block with smaller ports is easier and less costly to build and will still plant you in the seat and break em' loose, if you wish!
Good luck with your choice.
All the best,
