Can a 400BBM w/cheap aluminum heads compete/dominate against the street LS?

There is an entire CULT Following of fast ugly cars, it evolved/branched off into ratrods. You will be cool. This isn’t like the clicks in grade school with the best dressed kids-nobody (relatively) has these cars, and even those that do have the common-CRAP Chevies & mustangs, not original, more exotic cars.
Brother, YOU are the cool kid now. Don’t give a truck about some jealous pansy and his mouth. Even Rumblefish had to educate some MORON about the type of engine a guy had because the moron ran his mouth. Those fools should not have your ear, EVER!
Well said good Sir! I just get tired of listening to all the haters on my Cuda. It has 73 tail panel because I like round tailights, the whole front of car is fiberglass including the dash! Toggle switch of course, nose is from a 70s mold because I like the 1970, grill and fenders are 71 cuz I like the gills! Cal trac and a stroked 440 running mega squirt EFI. Typicall fiberglass cracks all over front from hard landings and I painted it in our barn. Hosed the hung some tarps, hosed the place down and rocked me some Sublime! Steering wheel gets unceremoniously tossed on dash, every show I have ever taken it to just to show folks the other side of our hobby, I get bombarded with the “ how could you do that to a Cuda?” My standard reply is.. thats why your key don’t fit!
