I agree, but I am scared to go there often as mine still has the original block and I have perenially bad luck. I've often toyed with building a clone to drive like it was a new car. I had a real 435 car with a correct (non-original) block for many years, and I drove it like I was trying to break the crankshaft. That car was more fun than all the other midyears I've had combined.
Original engine and 4.11 gears (original trans lost many years ago):
