So the other day I picked up a locked up 69 350 sbc for 35 bucks. I pulled everything out and the cylinders have just a little rust, haven't been previously bored or anything, but i think it's a good block to make a sweet build with. Of course ill have it cleaned up at the machine shop...

I'm making plans to to build either a 289 or a 302 with a manual tranny for my 1962 comet. The 170 six just isn't blowing my skirt up. My question is, which engine would I get the most out of for the least amount of money? Which would be a better ending product? Ideas for a build? Originality...
