Default Small Block

Richard,
IMHO, stick with a high-end small block setup for the JBL. FE's and other big blocks are okay in an exact replica Cobra, but not in a JBL. Your car just seems right with a small block the way the rest of it is set up. The word "Balance" just comes to mind there... John Marsey's car with that Boss 302, Yates heads, is a nice combo! Also, a nice custom fuel injected / supercharged small block would be very interesting in a JBL. How about that? i.e. Supercharged 351W/396 fuel injected, stroker JBL should do it!
