This car was built by my dad in '83. Sold in '88. And she found me again a little less than a year ago. Dad always had trouble with the old 428 overheating. A subsequent owner added an oil cooler and that reportedly solved the overheating issue. I put about 1500 miles on her before slinging a rod and never overheated. But the tired old mill wasn't exactly making good power.

DO IT... I strongly recommend going this way... you will forget about the $1400 soon, and the sooner you make the decision the sooner the 4 weeks start ticking away... the car will be down a couple weekends either way right? so there is a 2 week delta? no brainer its only 2 weeks man...
