if you have a good 318 block in hand and the budget is limited, I wouldn't hesitate to pull the trigger on a 390 stroker. I still have the matching # 318 from my '68 B'cuda sitting in the corner waiting for a rebuild. Now matching # 'teens aren't a big concern, but I still think it would be neat to drop the original block back in the engine bay someday and kick some butt!
