My '77 360 block went to the machine shop/motor builder today, along with the stock crank, stock connecting rods, stock pistons, and stock '596 cast iron heads. The shop is going to clean and mag everything and then contact me for the build. I am staying with the stock crank, stock connecting rods, and stock cast iron heads. I am looking for a mild build on this motor. I could care less about horse power and torque but I want that late 60's, muscle car lope. I'm thinking If I build it with decent performance in mind that I will get some good performance and sound quality as a result. So, what do you guys recommend for this type of build: 9 to 9.5 compression, HP and torque not important, motor will not be Dyno'd, no strip use, all street and cruising, lopey, 60's muscle car sound wanted, 727 tranny, 8-3/4 3:55 sure grip, into a '69 Dodge Dart (see avatar). Thanks in advance. Forrest
