So with a solid, thought out rebuild and matched parts, a streetable 300+hp. How much more can be made w/o loosing streetability?
Ultimatly, I would like to be pushing 400+hp, would that be beyond the reliable range of a 289? As I said, I was thinking about eventually building a 351w for the car. Would it be simpler/more realistic to hold that goal for a bigger displacement engine?
Also, with the Windsor heads, for budget reasons, I was thinking about using "stock" windsor heads, from an early 70's block, and just having them ported. How big a difference would it be between that and going w/ the aftermarket windsor heads?
