Isn't there a song,< I did it my way> . I agree build it right the 1st time, it cost more to do it over and over. Don't ask how I know, it still hurts to talk about it. I found that an FE is the the way to go . I see alot of owners hop up a small block to know end only to find it is hard to drive in traffic and they have to be in lower gears in town and they buss like a top. That gets old fast.
Besides , at the car shows; WOW factor is an FE and the engine doesn't look lost in a Cobra engine compartment. And as for the sound factor , you can beat a FE sound. Remember they didn;t make a 427 small block in the 60,s.
