should not be much of a problem
need an adaptor plate - might have to
search for a while
nice little 3/8x3/8
nice Edelbrock finned heads, maybe 2 or 3
97's in a row (all leaking a bit)
vertex magnito for quick starts
nice quiet cam a 404 or maybee a Potvin
eliminator
keep the compression down to a low 10.5 or so
and then you could always find
an ARDUN hemi conversion (yeah for 20k)
as the original ARDUN conversion were designed for truck service
