Come on up and I will take for a fun blast in a healthy FE.  Problem is once you have opened it up you have to stop it and/or turn it, they are heavy on the front but nothing a set of disc brakes and aluminum heads would not solve.  I love the torque and sound of the solid lifters but if I was to do it again I would lean towards a Roush 347 / 450 horsepower range, lighter, easier to steer and lots of pull.
Saying that, the Y-block dressed up tastefully is double pretty!
