"Bragging Rights" with a BB. OK, some may see it that way, some may want it that way, but there is another more fundamental reason.
It's what the 427 competition cars came with (hey, just keeping it real).
I wanted to experience as close as I could personally get to what it felt like 'back in the day'. When I built my motor I spec'd it with that thought in mind! You can't SEE the flat tappet cam, I reckon my former ROLLER cam would offer more in the way of 'bragging rights'. I didn't use a flat tappet or original iron heads to 'impress' anybody. I wanted to capture a moment in time. It was important to ME to know whats inside the motor, if others are interested, well thats cool too.
Capturing the 'moment' aint gonna happen with a SB, unless your running an FIA with buggy springs.
