Hi diiulio,

I've seen several Uniques, but not one with a 460 yet. My last Unique had a 428, my good friends has a 302/338 stroker; both will fry street tires withought much effort.

If cost & getting the most bang for the buck is a consideration for you, there are several 351 Windsor or reasonable FE/390 builds that you could do that would do a nice job for you. Remember, Uniques have a Jag/IRS. They are light Cobras too. These cars are not designed for drag racing, and you can only spin the tires faster with more horsepower and torque. If you buy a Unique 427SC body, I would encourage you to consider one of the above options, 351/390/428 for performance, handling, and resale reasons. Plus, the Unique 427 just looks right with an FE sitting in there. Many people run 390/FEs and have had great luck with them. Good Luck.
