What rad rides said x2. Go with a larger eng to begin with, a 1/2 longer crank gives you much more torque. Thats what the torino need ,torque. Not hi winding h/p. I have built many performance ford engs and have not... yet found a crack . .060 is the limit on a small block without any reservations. I have one in a falc conv that is .060 over and not a problem. Just use a set of GT-40 heads for a inexpensive build.Of course there are as many ways to build an eng as there are builders.
