i totally support the idea of using a big ol' BOP. theres a 455 Olds sitting in a '72 Delta 88 out back that just screams "rebuild me and make me fast!"

yeah. it's very tempting.

tho they may only put out about 300 horse in some instances...with 500+ ft/lbs torque naturally aspirated and fairly stock..how can you NOT dig these old 400+ BOPs??

i say, do it.

"proper" is so over-rated.
