"..... the build process should be chosen to complement each other and to meet the goals of the build."
Meeting their goals, we have seen many enthusiasts in our community become more high performance oriented. The use of roller cams, looser converters, more gear, ported aftermarket cylinder heads, single-plane intakes, larger cubic inches with aftermarket blocks, etc, etc. Not everyone's cup of tea but very unrealistic to consider a 5500+ RPM engine can't be streetable, that and a larger cubic Pontiac capable of making 600+ horsepower at 6000 peak rpm is definitely not lacking torque off idle or cruising around on the street !
