ha ha. yes you can, for 115K, & I'll include the rest of the car no charge.
Seriously though, a stock 289 K code engine that has been balanced properly is a great little engine. With some improvements to the breathing, like a good set of AFR heads, or a vintage Paxton (as I have), then 350+ HP can be expected. Or you can stroke it to 331 or so if you like strokers. However I like the way the short stoke (289) engine revs quickly, so stroking is out for me.
