390 vs 351c or 460 ?
Hello all
I need some input on engine choice here...
I have a 69 Mach 1 in need of restoring/hotroding. These are the options I am considering:
1) The car came with a 351 Cleveland, condition unknown. The engine was transplanted 20 years ago but was never fired. The Heads are not marked with a 2 or 4. they are casting DIAE-AIC. It is a Cleveland
2) I have an FE block that is a 352ci. A friend at work wants to sell me a 427 (steel) crank with rods. That would make it a 390.
3) I can start from scratch with a 460
What engine do you think would bring the best value per buck to the Mach 1?
Thanks
Well I've sure gotten old too so don't worry about it! I've had two bypass surgeries, new knees, fought prostate, cancer and diabetes. I'm half blind, can't hear anything quieter than a jet engine,...
