On the value thing...i'm not sure what a matching numbers 351 Cleveland Torino GT goes for but the big bucks are for the 429 SCJ cars. Its like the difference between a Chevelle SS 350 and a SS 454.
Well yeah, the Torino Cobra with the 429 is a bad mofo, but the 351 GT's are still worth money. I know for a fact that a 351 GT is worth more money with the original 351C engine in it than it is without, not matter how you look at it.
I also know that since I already own the 351C and do not own a 351W, that it's exponentially cheaper for me to keep the 351C in there. Since the 351C is already bolted in the car and the 351W (that I don't even own) is not, it's also exponentially less time consuming to keep the 351C. You guys are as bad as the Honda forum with engine swap suggestions in here!
What's wrong with Discount starters? I have one in my Chevy and it'll tow the car up the driveway in 1st gear if I have to.
