Well no offense man but AMCers are a loyal bunch and while its good you saved it from the crusher I still stand by my "belly button 350 swap" statement. its a boring engine hell a Mazda rotary would be someting different at least.

This car had a sbc put in it 20 years ago after being saved from the crusher. I forgot what I used at that time. Now they are worn out I should have know better than to ask.

I love seeing traditional hot rods with motors like a "Nailhead Buick" or a "394 cubed Olds" and sure you pay more for parts and having it rebuilt but its much more satisfying in the end either blowing the doors off or outshining some belly button ass "tree fiddy" swapped set of wheels.
