As mentioned in my first post I have just purchased a 1956 President. (The term is used loosely, its a shell requiring so much tender loving care)
The engine is pretty much done in, most parts are rusted beyond repair, some parts are missing, all in all its going to be easier to drop a entire new block in.
However I am pretty sure I can not purchase a new studebaker engine, therefore are there any good replacements that people could recommend.
I would like it to feel original as possible, however I do want increased reailablilty.
Are there any blocks that people could recommend that make good conversions? Or do I go the whole hog and pretty much replace every part and go original.
