    well chevys are droping left and rigth think again ? no one builds heads for chevys ?? you are way off .there is just as many companies out there making chevy heads or more. this need to get personal ? if so ok but if so let me know. i think you can read? there is no bolts at top at 12 .oo or 6 .oo on fords.good place to put some if you could.so at this point bigger bolts to make up for it?? chevys do not need the big bolts there is a better clamping force. hmm more head bolts around a hole sounds good to me. i will add over 10 to 1 CR and 10pounds of boost and over with a1017 felpro head gasket with NO head studs gm bolts . you tell me. i can not drop a 1/2 stroke cranks in an stock block HMMMM are you telling ME i think not. how many cranks have you put in chevys ? i bet i have put more big block cranks in than you.oh and they do a good job staying in . but lets not dwell on that.there is sometimes a small bit of grinding this has to do more with the rods you use. saying the counterweights hit the cam .more bs . a stock pan??you say stock pan will work on you fords? yes right .hmm yes a big crank and no oil scrapers or oil control ?the shelf type stock milodon pan fit s a chevy with a 1/2 stroke . yes a chevy can get 600hp out of it with stock parts and rpms??? you want to laid down some money ?????? i have had many big block run past 7500 but why? the last one made 765 tq and 850 hp below 6500 and likes to whip on your fords . i see you like to take what you like out of context?someone said you need a caillies crank to go to 10.000 WHY no power up there you do not need to go that hi but they can.i bet all your ford s you build you run them at 10000 all the time ?if os tell me what valve springs you use there are the same that well fit in a bb chevy head . if you are going to reprint and get it rigth . on the chevy blocks sorry to tell you but there are 800 hp+ out there with stock blocks i would not do it but it has been done . the hi nickel blocks can take a lot . for the resharping the cutter? well the bore is bigger so you may have to resharping it more.i touch up mine on every hole . but can you tell me that your block is more ductile than hi nickel so your are telling me it will not give just break? the chevy is 50 years old ?? well 1965? for the 396 ? last time i check chevy did come up with the canted heads first. i am sure if i am not rigth you will let me know? and it will cost more to build your ford. hear are some prices fluidampr chevybb $369.95 ford $396.95 heads dartsBBc 2299.fords edelbrock $2619.so just to build your fords it well cost more . but can you get more cid out of it you may. but you are saying it is cheaper to build as a 460 than a chevyNO cams more money. lifter more money.on this point lifters bore size do not tell all the drag cars and street cars with roller in them with that the lifter size is no good? some of them have 800 lift roller cams in themand there is more 460 than 454 ? and 427tall deck truck blocks ? ok just truck blocks ? i would not bet on this it 1968to1990+ may be close but i would say chevy was still using this block in mark 5 form. any one can read this can see the cost for ford parts in jeg.s or summit . make your mind up. oh on the pistons ? 475 cid chevy je grams 659 10.8 cr on ford 477cid 674 grams you can get to 12to1 with this piston so let be fare the chevy 14.7cr 475 cid 654 grams so the chevy is heavy?no. but lets not for get them big rods they are heavy more then the 10 grams? this may be hard to say has alot to do with the rod and i get more than one point more so cr i would say this is a draw ? no .so your ford has some hole punch thru it yes
