It's been a long time since I posted here, hopefully I'm not going over ground that's been plowed before.
I had the old 62 W300 out over the weekend as I had to go out and pull my F250 out of a snowdrift. In driving out to the hills, my occasional thoughts about updating the engine, or rather having it updated, came around again.
My thoughs were that it would be nice to be able to have electronic ignition, fuel injection, and perhaps an aftermarket turbo charger, on the stock 318 big block engine.
Is this idea nuts?
Is it possible?
What would it cost?
Is it a bad idea, if it can be done?
