As some of you may know I picked up this El Camino a few weeks back. It currently has a stockish 350 with a Muncie 4spd. I do not want to do an LS swap, as I want to keep it more of a classic muscle car. I was thinking about doing a blown small block or some sort of 383 build, but now I'm thinking about a mild big block Chevy.
Maybe a junkyard short block with new rings and bearings. Add some aluminum heads, flat tappet cam and a dual plane intake and I'd think 500hp would be easy to get. What do you guys think?
