What would be cheaper? Find a 5.8 out of a van or truck with the puter and all the wiring (the whole shmeer), or just find a ~'69 351W and add on the EFI? If I went with the vintage block I'd want to convert it to a full roller motor. AFAIK the late model 5.8's were only roller rockers and not roller lifters. Is this right? What year late model would be the best? I know they stopped making them ~'97-'98. Any suggestions?!!? If I went with the late model 5.8, would the AOD's normally behind them fit? I know they were used primarily in vans and trucks and don't know if it would be easier to grab THE WHOLE THING- Motor/tranny/wiring harnesses/ECU. But only if it all fit.
I'm looking at this swap for a '69-'70 Sportsroof daily driver project I'm interested in.
