We’ve done more than a few in a variety of muscle bulges. It’s all a matter of ala carte parts & machining spending. Howz yer wallet doing? I once did a nicely stroked 260 with the usual heads/cam/breathing upgrades and surprised everyone on the road; mostly me!! My personal feeling is to sideline the stock motor for car’s value and build any 289/302 toy you feel like risking. The tranny can easily be converted to a wide ratio/lower bottom gears for a quicker start. A Tiger does not need much to turn your knuckles white. Getting the darned thing to hook up and handle is a challenge & debate for another post . . . . . . . . .amen
