Please don't scrap the Babbit engine. That one's probably got a spray-oiler 235, and they're somewhat scarce. With a little creative machining, a rotating assembly from a later model full pressure engine can be adapted to the earlier block, which would retain the original appearance. It's also possible to get up to 270 cubic inches in a spray-oiler 235 block.
