    Sometimes "more" is not necessarily "better".

    Case in question: The 500-cube Caddy engine vs. the 301-cube Chevy.
    Ensure that the path of least resistance is not you...

    I think you might be comparing apples to oranges on this one.
    Is the 301 Chevy kind of like a 301 Pontiac?
    Or do you mean a 302 Chevy???

    The 'rodders called it a 301 'cause thats what it was!

    Chevrolet called it a 302 when they pushed it into production for Trans Am homologation.
