I had '65s with a 200 inline 6, a 260 V8 and a 289 V8. All ran like a scalded dog because the car was so light. Any would be pretty good for spirited driving.

The only version of that car that was a dog was the 170 inline 6.

A 302 or smaller would be a great choice for the use you describe...but why not just rebuild the engine you have?

Some are born free. Some have freedom thrust upon them. Others simply surrender
