Idea: Junkyard bling.
Hello all,
Long time member, looking for advice:
I have done a bit of research but to no avail, has anybody done this:?
Get a stock (junkyard) 5.9,or any other Magnum motor, fit some aluminum Edelbrock RPM heads on it with the terrible "beer barrel" E.F.I. intake on it (perhaps mild cam, bigger t.b.) and drive the snot out of it in an A -body?
I am looking for 350 crank hp, all day driveability and reliable (oils well), I will be doing track days at B.I.R
I am willing to sacrifice hp for torque and reliability: E.F.I MUST stay... I am tired of carbs and looking to possibly megasquirt the motor if need be.
I will treat the short block with the best oils but I want it to know that it is replaceable!
Fuel is not an issue, hood clearance is not an issue.
Share if you have any input.
Thanks,
Joel
