Default Re: would like some opinions on the motor

I know many of the guys who Participate in the Pure Stock Drags ahve replaced their numbers blocks with other engines that can withstand the abuse while preserving the cars history. If you are only driving 500-100 miles per year and just want to "mash some carpet" on occasion stick with the original. I do that at least 6 times year with my 442. Let the tranny do the shifting (Automatics of course)and for your own satisfaction install a set of good mechanical oil and temp guages.
