Re: Still up in the air....

I think you should think about whats behind door #3. You should consider a fuel injected 5.7 motor with a 700R4 transmission or better yet a modern LS motor and 4L60E transmission. Power, reliability and economy. You could probably do it for around the price you would pay for the big block and tranny.
