I researched several threads before posting this but trying to navigate the various crate motor options for my 1969 Bronco I'm currently restoring. The idea is to keep the as original as possible and right now the existing engine is not going to cut it, plus I need something reliable in FL summer heat.
Generally speaking, the Blueprint seem to be superior quality over ATK but pricer and longer lead times. Is there any "gotchas" I need to look out for or ask before ordering from someone like Jegs or Summit Racing (oil pan, short or long block, etc.)?
These were some options I was considering and would prefer to stay in the 300 HP or less range.
