post badest stock stroke small blocks

Just throwing a mittful of money around doesn't guarantee fast.

Stock and Super Stock is full of regular 40 hour a week working stiffs who have worked long and hard to be competitive. Yes, they're more expensive than a bracket buggy, but while a racer can be rightly proud of his 11 second 2800 lb 402 stroker, an 8.5:1 318 in a 3400 lb car that runs 10.0's is nonetheless impressive. Money or no money, getting those kinds of times out of these combinations, given the restrictive nature of the classes, should be admired.

You make it sound like class racers need to apologize for being successful.

you took a simple statement about how much it costs to get "stock" parts to work together and run well WAYYY out of context
