> so im a little uneducated on this 408 motor… what makes it so great, and why isn’t any larger cubes employed?

its a huge LSX based motor, its a .030 over 402 stroker kit. they use a 6.0 block and of course stroke it

average of power ppl are getting from 408s NA are low to mid 500s to the wheels. well others have seen high 500 to low 600s to the wheels with a more aggressive setup. then you have the ppl on spray or the boosted ppl
