Stunning VC Valiant where concours resto meets 11-second grunt
so, a "318" on steroids but still counts, doesn't it?

Yeah, it’s not a 318.
that ain't no tree-ate-teen
@ValiantRacing has a class racer that's got a legit 273 that runs something like that

sorry you missed the humor but it's still a 318 block, that has to count for something
Beautiful car. About the only thing wrong with it is the steering wheel is on the wrong side.

Sorry, I am always up for a good laugh but your original post didn't even read as humor.... lol
Click bait 
I get you were just playing around, but once you stroke sbm to 390-440+, It's basically a big block now and hard to give it under dog status, especially 318 under dog status.
Still, very nice car though.

Didn't say a great big blockbasically a big block? except the low flow heads... small bore and criminally shrouded valves.....
factory bbm wedge aren't known for there great ootb flow and also there is 900+ hp sbm heads available, but I get your point I just find it weird when some get some kind of underdog satisfiction when say a stroker small block keeps up/beats a big block, when you built the short block to big block size and put a similar capable top end on it, why wouldn't it ?
