looking for something with good hp 400-500 and gobs of torque to get the box running. Open to either a small block or big block...
Anyone here build engines that fit the criteria and are affordable.
Or anyone have a link to a company that does?

here is the specs on the motor. with the right carb and headers I'd say at lease 510HP. If you interested I'll throw in a Turbo 400 trans
