Motor question

Have the opportunity to buy a motor for my 71 burb...72 402 block with 69 396 heads. Mild midrange build. Is this a good combo for 1ton burb? Looking for daily driver type driving.

It will depend on my mood and weather...my other drive is a 75 Bronco. Don't have a regular normal car as some would say.

Re: Motor question

In stock form the block is 240hp and the heads if on matching block are 350/375 depending on cam. I don't know complete build history but was slated to go into a 68 SS El Camino after a cam change but the owner found a #'s matching 68 bbc so he is selling the 402/396 combo.
