Thread: 350 SB stock torque rating

Tweet

Well somehow I hit the submit button twice, but no big deal. I enjoyed the task of looking up the comparison of the SBC 350 and the 59AB Ford Flathead. I know you can get about 270 H.P. from a flathead with a stoker crank, porting and relieving and dual or quad intake, but first you have to find a flathead block that is useable and that is becoming more difficult as time goes by and maybe in 10 years or so the SBC 350 will be scarce, but I doubt it, there are so very many 350s that it ought to be available at least until we are all running electric hybrids!
