Thank you for the info. I thought as much. My chassis info is below. I have started to look for the 313 engine and I have been told it is an easy and inexpensive purchase as long as you are patient.
It seems that many Bristol cars I have seen, especially 411 and 603 cars have had engine upgrades. I do know that the 340 was an AAR cuda engine and itself pretty valuable, especially with the vintage Holley six pack with manifold and linkage. Also the performance is astonishing yet still very drivable and sedate when you want it to be.
