When you say you are building a Factory Five with a luxury-shaped interior and then adding AC, you will have long-since broken any notion of era-correctness (in my humble opinion), so why waste time/money/energy/weight on a big old clunky hunk of cast iron FE?
I concur. A nicely done 351/408 will make all the power you can use. Remember, FFR's are LIGHT!

And, as far as the registration in your State, what State are you in?
