Welcome Thomas. I just finished my 69 340 Swinger. So many decisions, but one thing please consider is once you go down the path you will want to do more than you set out to do and costs easily run away. Since this is knew (I think) to you does the restorer know anything about Mopars. Very important because a lot of mistakes can be made $$$. I wanted to do the 440 and 426 thing but once I looked at the additional weight, driveability and costs, I went small block. I think the modern Hemi would be a great way to go, also more reliable and 375hp is plenty to have street fun with. Good luck with all the decisions and if I can ever help just IM me.
