Hello from 6 year Slumber Its been roughly 6 years since I have been on the forum and changes in careers to moving then finally finishing up my 67. I will eventually end up doing some type of LS swap later down the road but this is what I wanted to build for the first go around and plan to and have been enjoying it for the past 6 months.. For now it has a mildly built 396, M21 4 speed & 3.73 12bolt. Ill go back to lurking but I just wanted to say hello again and show everyone what I have been up to in the car scene..

Looks beautiful! I definitely wouldn't pull out a big block to install an LSx; if the 396 isn't quite doing it for you then perhaps a nicely built 496-502ci would do the trick. When you're already setup and have space for a BBC, an LS doesn't make sense unless you're looking for daily driver fuel economy and manners IMO.
Either way, it looks fantastic.
