216 V8 Say what???? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Got a question for you more experienced folks. I'm building my first truck. It's a '53 five window. I've been planning to use a crate motor. Maybe a ZZ4. This afternoon I stumbled on a 215 aluminum block V8. Brand new build by Mondello in CA. Balanced, blueprinted, ported, polished, 11:1's. Maybe not much torque, but it looks way cool. What do you guys think? If it doesn't make sense, I will sell the thing. I've got the origional build sheet. Lookslike about 4k+ into it. $3500.00+ship. I will deliver in western Wa.
