was there a price limt ? i did nail head last year very $$ and some parts can be pick up thru T/A for it on the older engine s some bearings sizes are hard to get less you want off brands .cams .pistons. rods. cranks. all can be made for any engine but $$$ as for the caddy i work on a 55 engine $$ and price out a build on a 63 390 about the same at $3800+ with parts and machine work as a nail head stock build... so the older and more off the path the more money it would be .this is Ez for me it would be a bbc or a sbc or in line 6 if you want a older look they all fit the bill for small T a chevy 4.3 v6 would work as well for 1/2 the $3700 you can build a very nice small block with would make great power. and a $3700 price tag mild big block that would make much TQ and hp .that would beat any thing listed so far and make more HP for the money and take hard use very well
