65 Satellite: Option A is the numbers matching 361 which is pretty meh, 2bbl. To give it a fighting chance, I do have a set of rebuilt 452 heads and HP exh manifolds that could go in it. A 4bbl intake and carb are easy enough to find, something 600-750 cfm I would imagine. Could replace the cam pretty easily. Would have nice open dual exhaust installed afterwards of course. I am not going to go light up the pavement but I’m concerned this setup would lose some compression and leave a lot to be desired. The flip side is the car is very original and so is this engine.
Option B: A freshly rebuilt 440 .030 over with a 507/510 cam, with 906’s, a torker or performer rpm, and a Holley 750 probably (maybe bigger). A bit of a misfit engine as far as parts but it is at the machine shop waiting on me.
WWYD and why?
