is this true about a 350 sbc vs a sbm

Listening to many of you guys getting all worked up about what this clown(the chevy idiot) said & a lot of you guys almost sound like him except for the brand of choice!
Don't argue with a fool because someone may not know th difference! I've built them all over the years, (most over 400 HP & a few 500+ & a Couple BBMs over 600HP)& the ALL have limitations, benefits & drawback to their deisgns. The 1 thing I can assure you- the engine doesn't know what brand it is. With all the aftermarket heads available today you can make anything run well if it's in capable hands. Same thing with reliablity. What makes 1 guys motor run for years without problems with a cast crank @ 7000+ RPM & defies all logic, but another guy had problems well below that? It comes down to attention to details & proper assembly & parts selection. Doesn't matter what brand it is.
Anybody who brags about his horsepower, unsolicited, early in a coversation is usaully talking out his ***! The OP handled it just fine!
