Before I get started, here is a link to the rules of the division we will be running in. We have almost a year to get this thing going.

So we are thinking of putting one of the following motors in; 351 Cleveland, 351 Windsor, or 5.0 HO. This would be my first time setting up a car for oval track, I set my Probe up for drag. I'm mainly looking for any information, good or bad, as to which motor would be our best option, the hard/easy parts of swapping from a 3.8SC, or any other helpful tips.

I will be doing a lot of searching. Whichever motor we pick must be carbed, and by their rules, pretty much stock. How readily available are the front end parts for 89 SC's, such as fenders, control arms, and the like.

Thanks again for any input you guys can provide.
