do you ever plan on selling this thing, if you do i'd go for a 429 because it will be worth alot more with that in it than with another engine. if you don't plan on selling it, go to town and buy something you like and do whatever you want to it. jegs has a 460ci engine with 500hp or 550hp for $5,999 and $6,235 respectively. I'd go with something like that, maybe not a completely assembled engine, see if buying all the parts and assembling it yourself is cheaper. whatever you do, just know where you want to go with this car, if you want to sell it, and how much it's going to decrease/increase in value if you do a certain thing.
