Oh yeah. Do it!
If the poll is still open: I cast my vote for a V8 (it's gonna be expensive to fix either way....might as well make it more fun to drive)
Oh, and go ahead an add a/c

You could mount it on a pole in front of 49 tire at a rakish angle like an old F105 in front of an air base.
Besides a complete motor what other parts do you need to make this transaction. Is your 2F coming with the Trans?
No trans included. But I do have a set of the fancy MAF ceramic coated headers and a full exhaust with new muffler & cat that could be pieced back to fit a 40/55.
I'd like to trade for a solid 5.3 under 100k miles w/ the accessories, needed adapters, motor
mounts, wiring. Not necessarily all the nickel and dime stuff, but the guts of what it would take to put it in the 60.
This is truly a polished turd. Quality rebuild, desmogged, AFI, DUI modified dizzy, new WP & alt, newish AC comp, good exhaust.
I drove it across the country at 75-80 the whole way w/ zero engine problems. (did seize a bearing in an idler pulley). The TBI worked flawlessly from -200 ft to 10,000 ft. Pulled steep grades in 110 weather with the AC and doesn't get hot.
Can easily peg the speedo in a 60 (85 mph).

Smoky burn-outs by a 55?? Awesome!
The Race 2F sounds nice though. 55 with AC? Cool!

Stay stock.
I was able to revive an old F motor that has been sitting out for the last 7-8 years. Ice busted the transmission and it had 5 stuck valves but she's s runner now Can't figure out how to attach a video but here are the high and low compression numbers (warm):
