Re: Old school engine rebuilding wisdom welcome here
It isn't hard today to get a standard 2-barrel 289 to run like a K-code.
When you rebuild it. Get an agressive cam, I prefer a hyd. roller. A good set of cylinder heads and balance everything. Have the rods sized and up the cap screws to ARP's. Aluminum intake and a 4-barrel with good ignition. You can go to 6K with ease.
