We all have to see the good side go any major problem.
When you get her together you will
Know exactly what is in there and how it's been done.

For some up grade work.

O.K Andy or should I say Borat:bannana::bannana::bannana:
I must repeat to all those people that keep playing with Jethro mind (all be it little) :sulk::sulk::sulk::sulk::sulk:What part of keeping it looking original and matching numbers, don't we understand? Don't get me wrong it would have been a whole heap cheaper and in fact more cost effective (performance Cube wise) to just crate it, with all of todays packages available..... but the road to perfection is a lone one with heaps of forks in the road that temp you and sway you but it must be remembered what is really started the exercice....:nagnag::nagnag::nagnag::nagnag: that being relialbilty with a little bit of arse end sideways (Est.400 H.P 440 Torque) :bannana::bannana::bannana: and a matching # ol skool box stock (well at the optical) original 1969 Roadster! :sulk::sulk: well that's what I'm telling me self that now any ways Andy!

I started out keeping my 71 stock looking/matching numbers. After rebuilding the original motor I hit that fork in the road you refer to Jethro and built an injected stroker. I problem I have is there is so many upgrade parts available that it makes it difficult to keep things stock.:huh:
In hindsight I should of done what Andy said and built an injected big block. I might have to do that for the next project!!!
