Interesting point Foxbody but it all depends on what year 351 he puts in there. I would find a '69-73 351 like I have and stay away from the '74-up 351's because of reduced compression and emissions for those years.
I would have thought you would have been partial to the 351 swap since you have a 351 in your stang as well.
You could probably save some money by going with a carb setup instead of EFI.
I'm not trying to start a carb V.S EFI controversy here.
It all goes back to how much cash you have and what your goals are with your car.
