The only reason I wouldn't use a 440 would be originality.  Even though 
it doesn't seem like it now you may want to sell the car one day.  
Having a different engine than what belongs in the car could scare away 
some potential buyers.  Kenyon, a fellow list member, had lots of 
engines for sale at one point pretty much at giveaway prices.  You might 
want to contact him off list and see if he still has anything 
(imperialist1960@xxxxxxxxx).
