Thoughts?

So ive really been trying to figure out what i want to do with my 240. As of right now its a stock kade with full suspension. I have been checking out the LSX swaps and the Lm7/4 swaps, also the ford 302 swaps. I see benefits in all But recently i got to thinking after doing some research on my mustang motor i have currently. From what i found the 351w that i have (1969 motor) puts down in stock form 300hp and 380tq. I was like that would be all i need. I have been wanting a big block for my mustang anyways and a big block 429 or 460 is loads cheaper than any of the chevy motors i can get. Also my 351w is not stock. From what i have been able to find is that the 351w is really only about 1-2in taller than the 302 which people swap into the s chassi alot. Also its not really any heavier than say and lm7 out of a silverado. and only like 50-60lbs heavier than an ls1 but puts down more power, or at least more tq which is what i really love. I have been trying to find more info on putting this motor into an s13 and cant seem to find any anywhere. What do you all think about this idea i have. Motor would be free. i can weld and fab my only concern right now is the driver side header due to the steering rack. as well as the oil pan and can i keep the sway bar. This is mainly a drift car with occasional street use and would love to keep a/c and my sway bar. Any suggestions or thoughts on this?
