The Shelby aluminum FE block will go up to 527 cubes. Genesis FE iron or aluminum will go to 542. The 385 series Ford BB will go even more cubes. I think to 567. Anyway, I've owned all of them. I've also owned some nasty small blocks but nothing as nasty as the big blocks. Anyway, to each his own. In my opinion if the money was all the same on them, then the BB would be most popular.
