Wendell your going the wrong way. we don't put 6 cylinders in our V8 cars. I'm sure you have your reasons but I would put a late model 302 in that classic or rebuild the 289.

V8 turned into a V6. Never heard of this before. You'll need to change too much stuff to list. Just rebuild the 289, they're really easy to find parts for.
