RE: Difference between big and small blocks

By Jeff H. - 09/11/2005 2:08:36 PM; IP 67.183.44.125

They are completely different designs there are no major components that are shared between Ford big and small blocks. Small blocks have smaller cylinder bores and shorter strokes than big blocks. Big blocks have more torque (i.e. longer strokes) but cannot rev as high as small blocks. The overall dimensions and weights of small blocks is less than that of big blocks.
