I am just starting to notice these 4200s. I have seen some amazing videos about the performance capabilities on them.

But the first thing I dont want is a techno nightmare motor swap. Getting past the computer wiring and motor mounts and selection and installation of a transmission alone could mean countless hours.

Right now I am looking at my 250 in liner and a Muncie 4 speed slated for my 65 Nova. And you have all schooled me that it will take a lot of money for me to scare any V8 cars with a 250. I wont try to achieve that just yet.

So maybe the idea of big horsepower and good gas mileage plus less weight might make the 4200 swap a possibility somewhere in my cars' future, but for now I will sit back and take notes.
