Im not real sure right now but I think I want a stout 350 at least 350HP maybe 400HP. Something that I will be happy with for a while since I am not very concerned about having a race motor or a 383 because I want a nice fun weekend car when I finish the body off resto. IF you have any opinions on a nice 350-355 combo with a great all around cam that sounds mean but is very streetable let me know. Thanks I am going to start on a engine soon and then save up for a richmond 6 speed I guess.

A good cyl. head in the 180cc range, cam around 220-230 @.050 duration (Isky 270 or 280 cam, Edelbrock RPM will give you a strong reliable runing street motor with power everywhere. 1-5/8 headers, 650 cfm carb.
