That sounds like an amazing idea. I fully built(unlike mine) 302, or 306 would be stupid fast!
Mines a 306(earliest sbf u can get .030 over). A 70+ 302 wouldnt be to bad because altho 28oz they used the same 4 bolt pulley setup from then on out so accesorys wouldnt be such a pain but honestly id say start with a 5.0 roller block. I just used my engine because my builder already had it put together and i didnt know the diferances. Some of the early 302 blocks (the mexican blocks to be exact) are stronger but that wont make a dif til u decide to go 347 stroker. Even then peak power b4 u start crackin the block is around 450 or 475. Set of heads, a decent cam, full roller rocker setup, springs to match, bump up comp., and build the bottom end to take some abuse and ud have a 350-400 whp toy that would be fun as hell and you wont have to pay the extra cash to get a conversion flywheel to run a t5 like i did.
looks good but your car did look nicer 12 months ago. Simple now you just got was to much going on. A bit of "overkill" i guess to each of their own tho.
I dont really understand the too much going on thing. Hes got nice wheels, a is lip and a nice ride height. As far as drift cars go is actually super clean.

Definitely! No need for more power than that, especially with the work involved to do so.

To clarify, are you talking about when I first bought it, or when it had the Rota's on it? Because if you're talking about the latter, I simply don't understand. The car is actually 10x simpler exterior wise than it was before... No double lips, bented, sharpied valance, no stretch etc etc.
