SB2's are made to make HP at high rpm; granted the cam has a lot to do with that too, but even when they had the option of running either motor, the 18 degree motors had a flatter torque curve and were better for short track, sb2's ruled the speedways. Given that the average street motor doesn't spend much time at or above 8000 rpm, there are better head choices for a street motor, although I have to agree that they look REALLY cool under the hood.
