I am talking with the idea of a street rod. drag racing is fun and all but it's far from the be all end all of an auto enthusiast.

If we are talking drag power then fuck Ford and Chevy both and I will one up you with a full on blown Hemi...only downside is keeping the damn thing running for more than two passes h:

It is a '65 Mustang. I had two 289s and one was already bored. It is the cheapest and most cost effective way for me to go right now. I would rather people be wowed by a slammin' 289 than...oh...another 351.
