Trying to decide between bb or sb, would like to know how they handle in these cars. I'm interested mainly in a roadcourse sort of context. I know c2 corvettes can handle the bb and keep a good weight distribution, not sure about these.

How do F-bodies handle a big block?

whats the weight distribution like?

can the car turn at all, alot of understeer?

thanks

 

I've got a 69' with a 454, I haven't driven any other first gen camaros but mine turns just fine when i want it to as long as its moving and i've got the stock 40 year old non-power steering box. Most of the weight is in the front but i used Eibach springs in the front so they're plenty stiff (5 leaf in the back).I dont feelmuch body roll at all.

 

well a bb weights around 750

and a sb is around 550
