I'd look around and see what you can find in a similar scenario, I'm quite sure there are changes in projects that will make engines available for cheap.
i know the following will go against the grain of any hotrodder but.
my bone stock 302 is more than enough power for me in this 2300 lb. car
and i dont want to have to mod anything for a swap.
this fenderless rig has everything exposed so there will be no engine access problems.
i guess the next step is write down the numbers on the block and make real sure the engine i buy will bolt right up to the c6 tranny.
