    Why are you ruining a perfectly good Mopar with a damn SBC?

    ...isn't there some kind of Federal law against that swap ?? You are joking, right? And what, exactly, was wrong with the 354 Hemi that was in there?

    Like most of them, it was probably already gone! And there is absolutely nothing wrong with a SBC in anything. My '56 CRL is keeping the 315 Poly, but its getting a 4L60e 'Vette O/D tranny unless I can find a '92-96 A518. I have no problem putting anything into anything if that's what the owner wants.

    Dude, use whatever you want! I like them all!

    Some swaps are not meant to be. That is one of them. That goes against all that is good.
