"The Big Block From Hell"
Hey Big Block fans, I found this series of Vette Magazine articles from the '90s GREAT reading:
'Vette Magazine's "Big-Block from Hell" articles make up the longest running project car series ever published by any Corvette magazine. It is still an active project at this writing in August 1999. The most recent installment, Part 16, published in the magazine in February of '98 and is reprinted elsewhere on this web site. Vette Magazine plans to continue the series at the rate of about one installments per year for the foreseeable future. As this introduction is being written, Part 17 is in the planning stages right now.
When I began writing the BBfH series (Part 1 published in the July 1990 issue of Vette), I only intended it to be a couple of articles on engine modifications. It was not until later that the series evolved into a project vehicle called the Big-Block from Hell. Even then, no one at Vette back then ever figured we'd still be writing the series in 1999.'
Here they are:

Yes there is some great reading there. I found that last year when I was trying to decide which Cam to put in my BB. 
Some interesting viewpoints and a good read although a little long
shmoky
