I would say that as long as you are talking strictly about SB Chevy builds, there may be a price diff. at first but it will take a lot of cash to make up the 105 cubic inches between a 350 and a 455. Big block Chevy parts are expensive, more than Pontiac stuff due to the demand. So to me there's not much substance to that argument. Happiness is cubic inches, and you get that on your Pontiac. By the same logic I picked up a 403 Olds to replace my 301, 102 cubes and a pickup load of speed parts for 200 bucks. Not bad, once again it's a question of demand. Notice I didn't drop in a Chevy even tho I have a stack of HP heads and blocks.
