340 4 speed vs 5.2 5 speed

Ok, so how are you gonna make the 5.2 best the 340? Bigger valves? More compression? Bigger cam? More intake and carburetor? Big headers? Everything you do to the 5.2, I get to do to the 340. The 340 will win every time, unless somebody breaks something or cuts a really lousy tree. What's that you say? You wanna handicap the 340 with no mods since it's a 340? Nuthin doin. Everything you get to do, so do I, so that levels the playing field. Over and done, the 340 stomps butt every time.
