Advice On Engine Swaps

300hp from a 289 is easy. build the 289 with a set of windsor jr heads, a 270h magnum cam from comp cams, use flattop pistons, an edelbrock performer rpm intake with a 600cfm carb, i like the edelbrock performer carb, and a set of tri-y headers with a 1 5/8" primary tube. use a duraspark distributor, and wire it to a duraspark, or a chrysler ignition box, and you are good to go with 300+ hp. not only will this engine be powerful, it will have a solid street torque curve, pull to 6000rpm, and still turn in decent fuel economy, if you can keep your foot out of the throttle.
