Help Me Decide On This Motor

So yesterday I was unloading some scrap at the local scrap yard and noticed a 91 C60 with the front end gone. Checked it out and it still has the complete 7.0 in it and is supposed to run. I know the motor is a tall deck, but I was quoted 150.00 for the motor, acc and computer.

I'm doing a frame off on my 66 SWB and do not have a motor yet so I've been thinking about this one pretty hard. I like the thought of a BBC and would leave it stock with the FI and computer if I decided on it.

I know its not a hi HP motor which is fine since I'm more after tire shredding torque which this should have plenty of, but before I ran into this I had really planned on a LS swap.

Question is should I jump on this 7.0, wait till I get close and get my LS or buy this 7.0 and flip it on Craigslist for $$ towards my project.

My guts telling me LS, but I really think the 7.0 has potential for a cool weekend cruiser and for the $$$ I think I could do it a lot cheaper than a LS swap.

Thoughts? I have till Tuesday to decide..
