Are you talking about a punched up small black 408 Windsor base? I was looking at some. I have been rolling all sorts of ideas around in my head. Everything from an old 5.0, to the new coyote, maybe a bored/stroked 302 or a 351w bored/stroked. When I get enough money, budgeting between 5-6k for the engine&trans, I'LLC have to make a decision... oh another option is the 5.4 SC out of a lightning or svt. I want to go carburetor though... I have had enough if computers in cars and sensors throwing codes, and tire pressure monitors blinking shit at me. I just want a low, probably slow, sexy truck again. That can withstand an emp blast when the government finally jumps off the deep end or the Chinese invade. Lol.

I'm liking the idea of a stout little 302 bored out with a blower mounted up top with 2 Holley 450s though... I bet that would sound like Satan fucking Rosie O'Donnell in the ass.
