Most people go for the earlier, silver-top engine.

people keep saying that the black top and ST170 have better flowing heads for high bhp engines but R8T BOY on here has got 536bhp form a early silver top block and head

People use the silver-top because of convenience.. it's easier to install than the black-top, unless you have a focus or mondeo.
