Agree with Jeff's assessment, but will go a step further and suggest that starting any hot rod modifications should begin at the rear of the car. The differential in your Chrysler was designed to handle 135 hp and would not like having to put up with much more than that before beginning to shed off parts internally.

Overall, I think hot rodding this car will be a mistake. If you are not planning complete suspension, steering and brake mods in addition to the engine swap, it could very well be the car that you die in.
