Hi everyone! I am in the beginning stages of restoring/swapping the engine in a Fury I picked up. The Fury has been living in a barn for 20+ years and is in amazing shape considering. I will keep the original engine/transmission just in case I ever decide to undo the engine swap.
I already bought a 440 and a 727 tranny to go in it. What do you think of the plan and budget? Trying to decide on what engine rebuild to go with. Anyone have experience?
