Now if you're wanting advice on how to shoehorn one into your car, I probably can't be much help.
I recently had the 351 dyno'd it was 255 HP at the rear wheels, with 275 Max Torque, at 5500 rpms. Not sure what HP and Torque would be the best, I will be driving the car on the street as often as the weather permits here in Ohio. Any suggestions would be appreciated. The reason I ask about going to a 460 was due to the availability of these engines, not locked into any big block choice.
Thanks
