A V8, 283 would be period correct. A guy in Greenville has one if you would like to chat with him. I've bugged him about it but he hasn't give me a price yet. It will need a rebuild.

REbuild the one you have or you could go about anyway you want to. A 250 inline6, something bigger like a 261 inline or as mentioned some small block chevy would fit right in.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
