Neat story Hubert. Sounds like it should be rust free. A big bonus for you.

I had an L78, 69 Chevelle with an all original driveline. The factory rated it at 375 HP. It actually "felt" like it had more HP than that. I compare that feel to the cars that I have now. Both Chevies have 427s in them One dynoed at 450 and the other one is a hair over 500. A pretty decent build for you to consider would be something along those lines. You would have to drop the compression ratio a little to run on the shit gas that we have now.
