Update - Bought a Demon project - WWYD?

Since my budget is extremely tight, I figure I am going to see if I can get the /6 to run first. If I can, it will stay in for awhile. If not, it came with a 318 that has been freshly bored .030 over but is still in pieces and a 904 trans. I guess I'll slap that combo together and maybe get a better set of heads and bump up the cam a little to make it a "340 clone." Granted, if I go that route, I'll need to upgrade the rear end from the puny little 7-1/4 that's in it now.

Frame rails and rockers looked and sounded great. Looks like the wiper pivots leaked and caused the rain to get in and ruin the front floor boards. I see about 3-4 days worth of metal work before I can hit the bondo can...
